Finally they are here, one of the most exiting new Norwegian prog bands They are not traditionally prog, but they sure have picked some influences which are prog Fans of Avant prog, prog folk, eclectic prog and crossover should give their two albums a spin, they will be happily suprissed if you want to listen to som fun energic bright prog with stunning instrumental interplay this is the band for you, To say it like this Zappa would probably have liked them, and the Shulmans would as well bough their knees in awe. here is the proof of their PA inclusion they are unique in th realm of prog Edited by aginor - November 16 2010 at 16:14 |

I listened to parts of their debut streaming on their site and liked it a lot. E-mailed the band and will be buying a copy from them when they reply to my e-mail

My copies arrived recently but I haven't listened to either yet. I'll probably do so in the next day or so and report back with my thoughts

I'll review Songs From a Solitary Home when I have listened to it more. Also, Dance with the Cookieman is stuck in my head right now. Awesome track

Definitely a factor of their music that sets them apart from a lot of prog bands - they're songs can get stuck in your head after just one listen.

I listened to The Age of Paranoia and didn't like the vocals. Is that a good representation of the vocals on the whole album?
