PSYKEDEELISIÄ JOUTSENLAULUJA

A great album of progressive psychedelic folk music. If you enjoy violin in an electric setting - as I do - you will be find this album a gem. The instrumention of the band flute, violin, bass, guitar and drums (occassionally supplimented by keyboards) tends towards a sparse open sound which perfectly suits the music. The compositions aren't overly complex or tricky, but are beautifully played and occassionally brought to mind some of the experimentaions of the West coast bands of the late sixties and early seventies both in style and atmosphere. Something different and well worth trying.
