In December 2008 the fourth album was published. The album is entitled “Ø” - the Danish word for island. The new album has been created at five sessions at Brundby Hotel in the Danish island Samsø during the last three years. The band brought at bunch of microphones and some recording equipment and composed and recorded in the hall of the old hotel. The surroundings, the tranquility and a very relaxed mood have had a huge impact upon the music. Most of the new tunes on the new album are far more subdued compared to the earlier albums of Serras. Still there is music with the powerful expression that has always been a trademark of Serras.
Serras has got the line-up as when the band was formed. This means that is has been possible to develop a sound that has become very personal and that still is heavily influenced by the very different musical styles of the single band members.

I have never heard of this band but this matters little as I have discovered so much great music on your blog. I guess this is a labor of love for you but be assured that for a lot of people spread here and there it is a source of joy.
Thank you,

Thank you for your nice words Ralph.
Yes, I do the work with FY because I love the good music, only this.
I want to spread this to most people possible.
We deserve to listen something a little better than pop/radio music :)
I think they are similar to Wolfstone!
Thanks a lot for your work here! Much appreciated! I hope this site can last a long time
