PNKSLM106: Holm - Alien Health
RELEASE DATE: September 8, 2023
- 12’’ orange/transparent splatter vinyl - edition of 100 units
In 2022, Mikkel Holm Silkjær, the frontman of Danish indie rock combo Yung released his long-awaited debut solo record as Holm. Titled “Why Don’t You Dance”, it was a product of three years of writing and nearly six months of recording, and a gleefully varied guitar-pop record that veers between styles.
On second album 'Alien Health', he continues to step away from his group’s predilection for taut rock and roll and instead embracing a different side of his musical personality, one defined by his sharp ear for a hook, as well as - crucially - his burgeoning ability as an expressive lyricist. Alien Health is full of melodic and addictive cuts and is a honest, reflective, and emotionally-charged body of work.
***THIS IS A PRE-ORDER ITEM. OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE SEPTEMBER 8, 2023

I can't stop listening to this album, and I keep coming back to it. Really catchy, fantastic addictive choruses, great vocals, great guitar work, great lyrics... Hard to pick one favourite because they're all classics in their own right. Bloma
