BLÅ VARDAG

I think Atlas "Blå Vardag" is a fine representative of Swedish 70´s prog! In a way I like this even more than Kaipas classic albums. "Blå Vardag" is all instrumental, and the moods and characters is varied and inspiring, yet homogenic in a good way. A lot have already been said about the melancholic tone in Swedish and Scandinavian prog, and this album is no exception. As is many other 70's Swedish prog bands there is a lot of folk inspiration here, but there is also a whole lot of jamming or jazzy parts, along with rock. Give it a few listens an you will be stuck!
