The long-awaited debut album by Olimpia Splendid gives the listener that familiar, hypnotic, and noisy electric guitar music that the band first showcased in 2013 with the Nuttu Nurin 7" EP (FR 093EP). The six compositions on Olimpia Splendid sweep the listener along right from the beginning, as the magical, rough sound pierces consciousness. Olimpia Splendid was founded in the summer of 2010 in Finland's capital, Helsinki. Out-of-tune guitar-and-vocal music with drum machine loops composed and performed by Heta Bilaletdin, Jonna Karanka, and Katri Sipiläinen, each of whom was educated at Finnish art schools. Recorded at Studio Orvokka, Helsinki, in winter 2013 on eight-track and mixed on reel-to-reel tape by Ari Salonen. Mastered by Rashad Becker.
