Okay, lots of exciting things going on with Causa Sui these days.
PEWT’R JJJJJ
First of all, we have a new release out. It’s a very limited recording of our 100% improvised & instrumental concert in December 2006, which we played with guitarists Jørgen Teller & Ron Schneiderman of Sunburned Hand of the Man. The sound is way different than the 2 Causa Sui-albums, as everything was recorded live through a very basic setup, not capturing the individual instruments, but the whole sound of the jam in the room. The 2 hour concert were then spliced together in various ways, creating a sound that is both extremely lo-fi, but also very complex, to match the range of the players. There are manic psych-riffs that speeds up into infinity. Repeating kraut-grooves. Flutes & Chimes. Dark drones. It’s been described as Amon Düül II meets Kyuss. 70s Miles Davis producing a drunken Blue Cheer.
The CD-R is limited to 200 hand numbered copies, which are going fast already: Write the good people at There is no Trouble in Denmark
CAUSA SUI AS A TRIO
For various reasons Causa Sui is now a trio consisting of Jakob Skøtt, Jess Kahr and Jonas Munk. The way the two first albums were written and produced was beginning to prove itself unfruitful, and some kind of change was necessary to ascend to the next step of Causa Sui's sound. It has been matter of rediscovering the sheer unbounded joy of creating music together and the
ambition to go further artistically and develop as a band. All 4 of us was in agreement about it, so we played our last concert concert with Kasper right outside our rehearsalroom
last Friday - it was a great gig, out in the open, with a good vibe on
stage. The way it should be.
We have already recorded loads of new material as a trio during the last couple of months. We won’t say much about it yet, except that we’re really psyched about it. We play better and more freely than ever, and the songs are both drifting & gut-pounding.
We promise you no less than a complete assault on all your senses with a renewed energy and perspective.

Free Ride studio-report is up on Planet Roadburn. It's written by Jonas, and it's a hefty motherfucker! It covers pretty much everything, from experimental music to boozing on a beach - be sure to sit down while reading these pages, as they are likly to blow your mind...
What we set out to do with Causa Sui was to create a rock music that was heavy on the senses. A kind of rock that had the freedom, power and excitement of the early heavy rock of the late 1960s but with the depth and possibilites of more modern stylings. A kind of rock that hits hard and immediate, while still being able to surprise and seduce after repeated listens. Something that's easy to get into, but reveals a depth when one looks closer – a mix of the known and the unknown. From the beginning we have operated under the thesis, "what could have happened with heavy rock if it had followed a different path in the early seventies?"

gig in Tilburg, Netherlands, as Blue Cheer will play, amongst
other great bands. If you can't wait that long, we also
play on September 23rd at ZBZW in the same city. The Netherlands
rock, aparently!
July 2006
We have begun recording for a new album. Everything sounds
great on the recordings, which is made with a lot of new
gear. Expect a massive sound. Included is our longest song
yet, New Born Road, clocking in at over 15 minutes. It has
all the elements that constitute Causa Sui, including a
headspinning instrumental passage, that were conjured up
through jamming straight for three days, 6 hours a day,
recording each take. The release of the album is hopefully
in the fall.

future.
March 2006 – tour report
Bacause of various annoying reasons, we end up not playing
all dates as announced. But thanks to the great people of
Drive By Shooting (awesome 4/4 rock), cool japaneese psychers
Marble Sheep and the funny english punk dudes in Billy No
Mates, we got some extra gigs to fill in the cancelled ones.
BIG THANKS to these bands, as well as the incredible jamsters
in Colour Haze for saving the tour.
We blew out amps and smashed up drum heads and cymbals,
doing sets with a different vibe every night – on some occasions
jamming our songs into oblivion. Great venues, people and
vibe everywhere. We’ll be back on the road in the fall hopefully.
