ASPING is a collaboration project where the two constant members, Asa Nordgren (vocals, composition) and Michael Idehall (electronics, composition), invite others to experiment with music and sound. Although they have performed live on a few occasions, The Lion of Peraeus is their first music release.
On The Lion of Piraeus, Michael and Asa were invited to Athens to create music with Yiannis K. of the renowned Greek black metal band Serpent Noir. The eight songs of The Lion of Piraeus were composed and recorded during a week in the summer of 2014 in the old harbor city of Piraeus, now a part of Athens. The Lion of Piraeus is a sculpture defaced by Vikings who carved runes into it in the 11th century. The lion seemed a fitting symbol for the combination of Scandinavian and Mediterranean sensibilities.
