Deze keer is het de beurt aan Ole Michael Bjørndal, Hij is de gitarist van de Noorse band OAK en hij speelde ook mee in de live band van Airbag en Bjorn Riis. Onder de naam ‘Caligonaut’ brengt hij zijn eerste soloalbum uit. Hij volgde bij Robert Fripp een cursus in zijn nieuwe manier van het stemmen van de gitaar en past deze ook toe op dit album. Verder wilde hij een album maken in de geest van King Crimson, Genesis, Pink Floyd en Rush met het moderne van Tool en Opeth. Nu noteert iedere symfo act dit wel in zijn begeleidend schrijven, maar bij dit album is mijn interesse meteen gewekt.… Read more...
Psychedelic, heavy, prog and more innovating sounds spanning the late 60s and the early 70s – Wednesday December 23rd. Dan’s pick of the week: Yes (Fragile), Eloy (Inside), Rick Wakeman (The Six Wives of Henry VIII), Semiramis (Dedicato A Frazz), Camel (Camel) & Grobschnitt (Grobschnitt).
Fragile is het vierde album van de Britse symfonische rockband Yes. Dit is het eerste album waarop toetsenist Rick Wakeman meespeelt, die Tony Kaye verving na The Yes Album.
Classic Rock Review: “The album was recorded in September 1971 and co-produced by Eddy Offord, who worked on most of the band’s earliest material. During the recordings there was a major lineup change, reportedly due to keyboardist Tony Kaye’s refusal to embrace the Moog synthesizer and stick exclusively to the Hammond organ.… Read more...

Sinds 2012 brengt de Noorse band Tusmørke met de regelmaat van een klok nieuwe albums uit. Dit jaar werd het een dubbelaar met wel heel speciaal thema…
Graham Thomas van The Progressive Aspect (TPA): “Although the band tackle some fairly macabre subject matter, treating it with a respectful reverence and sense of drama, they also have an absurdist streak which surfaces from time to time, keeping the atmosphere from getting too serious. The musical palette is an odd mix of influences, including the spacey synth burbling and bass drive of Hawkwind, the psychedelia of Gong and Amon Duul II and the Gothic drama of Van der Graaf Generator. There’s also a quantity of folky Tull flute adding a lighter side. This audio concoction works remarkably well, and although all these influences are from the ’70s, that’s all the rage right now, what with Ring Van Moebius and Wobbler keeping the market in second hand Hammond organs afloat, and now Tusmørke can be added to that roster.… Read more...
