The third album from this band from Norway.
The band was a trio with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars and vocals.
Three guests added trumpet, keyboards and vocals.
This is the follow up to Natt, their 1990 album and an album who has now got a classic album status in the Norwegian rock and progressive rock scene.
How to follow up Natt ?
The band has retreated away from the more progressive rock and has found a place more in the depressive psych rock.
Melancholic psych rock is how I would describe the music here. It is songs based and does not deviate much from the verse-chorus-verse formula. The vocals is depressive and the music is a bit slow. There is also a lot of dark anger in the music.
Yes, there is a lot of darkness on this one hour long album. This band comes from the bleak arctic thundra, just a few miles south of the most northern point in Europe.
The music here is more fascinating than good. It has a nerve and a dark soul who appeals to me.
This is indeed a different beast than Natt, but still a fairly good album. Check out this album from one of the most original bands in the progressive rock and psych rock scene.
