The Knife have announced a new “audio-visual experience” to celebrate their 20th anniversary as a band.
The Swedish duo â comprising Karin and Olof Dreijer â released their self-titled debut album back in 2001, having dropped their first seven-inch single the previous year.
After sharing a host of rare and unreleased material last summer, the electronic outfit are continuing to mark the two-decade milestone into 2021.
Shifting the focus onto their acclaimed third studio effort ‘Silent Shout’, The Knife will tomorrow (May 14) stream a “special broadcast” of a hometown performance at TrĂ€dgĂ„r’n in Gothenburg, Sweden in 2006.
Fans can tune in via the group’s official YouTube channel at 7pm BST â see the premiere video below.
A new coloured vinyl edition of ‘Silent Shout’ is also set to arrive on August 20 via Rabid Records â you can pre-order it here.
The Knife parted ways following 2013’s âShaking The Habitualâ, resurfacing to share a photo book and live album based on that recordâs world tour. They played their last show at ReykjavĂk’s Iceland Airwaves in November 2014.
Reviewing the duoâs final album, NME wrote: ââShaking The Habitualâ is a radical gesture from an enigmatic group. As such, it will not be for everyone. Newcomers will likely be baffled. Hardcore Knife fans will hail it a masterpiece, while privately making fairly regular use of the skip button.â
Back in January, the band’s Olof Dreijer released a new remix of Robyn and Röyksoppâs song âMonumentâ.
