History

On 23 November 2012, the band released their first EP, Demontage, on Truelove Entertainment. Although it only consisted of six tracks, two music videos – for Glasgesicht and the title track Demontage – had also been released. During the time leading up to the release of the band's debut full-length album, Fjørt had played around 150 shows.[1] Then, on 21 March 2014, D'accord was released on This Charming Man Records.

2015 saw the band take a step towards signing to a larger label, Grand Hotel van Cleef, through which they released their second album Kontakt on 22 January 2016.[5] In the subsequent months the band embarked upon their first headline tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland alongside We Never Learned to Live.[2]

gollark: Are we able to do this without a unanimous vote? I don't believe the bylaws were amended since this last came up.

gollark: Fear it, although it isn't technically from that.
gollark: This application is LITERALLY a particle of weight W placed on a rough plane inclined at an angle of θ to the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between the particle and the plane is μ. A horizontal force X acting on the particle is just sufficient to prevent the particle from sliding down the plane; when a horizontal force kX acts on the particle, the particle is about to slide up the plane. Both horizontal forces act in the vertical plane containing the line of greatest slope.
