This tune was sent to me late last night by a mate wanting to know more. Unfortunately, there is very little to know about the cryptic Selfish Replicators at the moment apart from the fact that this song was disseminated amongst a small number of music blogs (hello MP3hugger) and that the band are possibly from Norway.
Describing them as a Scandinavian Grizzly Bear means you probably won’t need to know much else. ‘Strands’ is definitely reminiscent of the Bear in its delicately arranged percussive timbres and its guitar line particularly. Whoever this band are it’s an awesome introduction.
I bet it’s an Aslan side-project
Wow, you’re hyping a band that has one song to their name.
This post sounds like a viral campaign to promote this band’s work.
You’re persisting Derrick. I’ll give you that.
Ha. I know exactly who this is. Probably not who you would expect… but you definitely know him. Good luck with the guesses!
pfff….a fantastick song though…i dont care if its a kind of bear thing….great music im, waiting to hear more from them…music is what matters…!!!!
not interested in the sound but their name is cool. obviously a play on Dawkins’ “the selfish gene”
