Heathen Gospels - 2024 Danish Target label 10-track LP

Danish Freddy And The Phantoms are ready with their sixth studio album “Heathen
Gospels”, which is a melting pot of country, blues and desert rock and their most fullytoned
Americana record to date. The album offers a ride into the open landscapes
with sky high promises, while a deep desperation hides in the valleys of the mind.

With these Heathen Hymns, the band focuses on big personal questions such as freedom,
spirituality, betrayal and the eternal desire for power, money and carnal desires.
“We have written the album during the autumn of 2023 and it is our most collective effort
so far. Everyone has contributed to the songwriting and compositions, and we have let
the songs and melodies dictate where the track should land, which has resulted in a
very varied, unpolished and melodic expression that we have not explored in the same
way before. In January 2023 we played in the USA for the first time, with three shows in
Asbury Park, so no doubt some inspiration was brought home for this record” – states
the band

“Heathen Gospels” was recorded in the band’s own studio in the countryside in
Hornbæk on the North Coast of Sealand. The record is mixed by Knut Haavik (Hotel
Hunger, Atterman etc.), who has assisted the band in bringing the cinematic qualities of
the songs to life, while retaining plenty of warmth and presence in the sound. Sonically,
the listener has arrived together with the band somewhere on the “Nordic Prairie” and
is invited on a journey of discovery into an epic universe that stands on the shoulders of
legends as The Band, Fleetwood Mac, ZZ Top and The Doors.
