When Saints Go Machine are setting the stage for a transformative 2024 with the release of their new double single, “Chainsaw / Trying,” out now. The Copenhagen-based trio—comprising Nikolaj Manuel Vonsild, Jonas Kenton, and Silas Moldenhawer—are pushing their sonic boundaries, delving into an acoustic presence that marks a fresh departure from their well-known electronic sound.

Their poetic description of the new material hints at an almost mystical experience, where raw sounds turn into epiphanies. “One day in the middle of it all, on a treatment table. The images that appear, that open something. Is it a gate? No, it’s something vibrant that makes daylight something other than just daylight,” they share. This vision of a “chainsaw into the body” transforming into something almost religious speaks to their desire to explore deeper, more tangible emotions through music.



“Chainsaw / Trying” is not just a release—it’s a call to engage with the essence of sound, inspired by the tactile process of making music by hand. The band aims to create a web of sensory experiences that go beyond the mere act of listening, embracing shapes that are “round, full, and yellow.”

Known for their fusion of genres, from techno and electronica to post-punk, hip-hop, pop, and club culture, When Saints Go Machine have built a reputation as trailblazers in the Nordic music scene. Following the success of their critically acclaimed 2023 album, “Rosy,” and the infectious single “Gone,” which earned them their fourth “Song of the Week” title on Danish national radio P3, they continue to captivate audiences on the global stage.
