We couldn’t believe our luck when we found out that Town Portal were making their unreleased track ‘Self Hunter’ available to the public. It’s a track recorded almost six years ago, before their illustrious Vacuum Horror EP and before bassist Morten Nielsen had even joined the band. According to the band it was ‘an unreleased track, intended for a split cassette with Governor Of Alaska that never happened‘. And, unsurprisingly, ‘Self Hunter’ has all the quirks we’d expect from Town Portal. Hauntingly beautiful and beautifully haunting, ‘Self Hunter’ shows how Town Portal have retained their distinct sonic identity throughout their musical career, an identity that hasn’t dried out with time but instead has become more and more exciting.
Town Portal released The Occident last year, one of our favourite releases. Go get it here.
