Why Findus is releasing an album right now titled "Mrugalla" is open to speculation. Perhaps it has something to do with recent plagiarism allegations? Because Edgar Mrugalla forged works by renowned artists like Picasso, van Gogh, or Monet starting in 1971. However, there can be no talk of forgery with Findus; here they present 14 new tracks dressed in beautiful indie rock with cryptic lyrics in German. The five guys from Findus, now based in Hamburg, have released "Mrugalla", the successor to "Sansibar" (Oct. 2009), on the Hamburg label Delikatess. The pieces have a high recognition value with catchy lyrics that you’ll have the chorus down by the second listen at the latest. Unfortunately, the versatility of "Sansibar" is somewhat lacking on this record, and it somehow misses the right "hit".
"Mrugalla" will be released on vinyl, CD, and digital. The cover, like that of "Sansibar", is designed in comic artwork and also reflects the connection to the north of the republic.
