Swedish melancholic synthwave/electro duo The Northern Territories is back after 25 years long hiatus. The duo has just premiered a new track, "The Hunter And The Hunted", a taste of their forthcoming fourth full-length, A Star In Orbit Still, which will be released on 23 May via Dependent.
A Star In Orbit Still combines everything that made The Northern Territories great and generated a dedicated and loyal following that eagerly awaited their return during all those years with a contemporary sound design. Channeling their trademark melancholy and Nordic knack for captivating melodies, The Northern Territories did not even shy away from covering Lana Del Rey's iconic track "Say Yes To Heaven" and making it theirs.
When the Swedish duo disbanded after releasing their third full-length, Satellite People, in 1999, they left behind many broken hearts. Now, after a record-breaking hiatus of 25 years, The Northern Territories is back! Link
