Svart records has recently come into a gold mine of old
Finnish TV broadcasts from the early 70s and begun to release these on vinyl.
I am a big fan of this Finnish band and Jukka Tolonen (the guitarist). I was
really surprised about this record and it pretty much blew me away. A strange
mix of prog rock, a bit of singing, some folky stuff but then strange chanting,
and hypnotic stuff and cool drumming reminding me a lot of CAN!!! Side A is one long 19min piece and side B a
shorter 14 and half min track with a great wah solo and very hypnotic at the
start, reminding me of CAN. Sadly, due to technical problems only 34 of the
56mins set was useable. Very cool album..
Limited edition of 500 and comes with a poster.
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
