In 2005 Unexploded was featured on another compilation, on DR (The Danish Broadcasting Corporation)'s electro compilation, Radio Recordings Two in company with Trentemøller and the same year Unexploded performed at Roskilde Festival's Pavilion stage, a concert that was transmitted live on national cable networks in its entirety. In the years 2006-2008 Unexploded performed concerts around Denmark, amongst others a summer show at Rådhuspladsen.
Style
Using his own style, Unexploded's focus remains locked on the atmospheric and the experimental approach without compromising or sacrificing energy or intensity. The discerning listener may notice many details and a huge sound that marks the often quite unusual songs. Unexploded's lyrics are sometimes personal, sometimes an uproar and subjects range from crisis management to personal development in a world that doesn't revolve properly. Describing Unexploded's music can be quite difficult, but the nearest genres are electronic rock or alternative rock.
