| Description: | Double vinyl in widespine sleeve with revised and updated artwork, plus CD. Parades is the second album by Denmark's Efterklang, the follow up to their underground hit of 2004, Tripper. Comprising 11 majestic, otherworldly pop songs, Parades manages to be both magnificently ambitious and engagingly intimate; a breathtaking panorama of sound with few clear antecedents. Music with no boundaries. · Parades is one the most ambitious albums Leaf has released, with recording sessions lasting 18 months and involving more than 30 guests including string quartet, brass quintet and three choirs. Mojo and Drowned in Sound acclaimed Parades as among the 25 best records released in 2007, while Clash magazine acclaimed it as one of the Top 40 albums in their five-year history. - Limited double vinyl LP pressing. 2016 release, the follow-up to Tripper - the fastest selling debut album in the Leaf Label's history - and the limited Under Giant Trees EP. Parades is a huge, multi-tracked immensity of a recording, with some songs made up of over 250 different pieces. Like a gigantic piece of musical theatre, Parades is a remarkable achievement, dense and diverse and clearly a lot of fun to put together.
