Double vinyl LP pressing. On *Vertigo Days*, the first album in six years for The Notwist, one of Germany's most iconic independent groups are alive to the possibilities of the moment. Their music has long been open-minded and exploratory, but from it's engrossing structure, through it's combination of melancholy pop, clangorous electronics, hypnotic Krautrock and driftwork ballads, to it's international musical guests, *Vertigo Days* is both a new step for The Notwist, and a reminder of just how singular they've always been. Most importantly, the core trio of Markus and Micha Acher and Cico Beck are reaching out: as Markus reflects, "we wanted to question the concept of a band by adding other voices and ideas, other languages, and also question or blur the idea of national identity."
