Kerrs Pink |
Never Land |
Art of Complex Simplicity |
1997 |
Musea |
|
This is Kerrs Pink's most recent release. The guitar textures and compositions
remind me alot of Steve Hackett and also of Andrew Latimer. Great symphonic
music.

White Willow |
Snowfall |
Ignis fatuus |
1995 |
Laser's Edge |
|
Very mellow music with female vocals. Sometimes sounds like the very
mellow moments of Anglagard or Sinkadus. A nice album to listen to
before sleepy time.

Anders Helmerson |
Digital Anthem |
End of Illusion |
1982 |
Musea |
|
Anders is from Sweden. This sole release by Anders was composed
and recorded over the period of 3 years from 1979 to 1981 and was
released in 1982 with a very small distribution. By the song titles,
and the fact that he is pictured with a Star Wars shirt, it seems
that he has an interest in "nerdy" things. Not, that there is
anything wrong with that :-) Sometimes, the album is a bit too
academic to create music of a memorable quality.

Akasha |
Death Hymn |
Akasha |
1977 |
Ad Perpetuam Memoriam |
|
This is a great space rock/progressive release from Norway. It sometimes
remings me of Genesis circa Foxtrot and other times spacey and riffy
like Hawkwind. Lots of electronics experimentation thrown in for
flavoring, as well.

1980 |

As alluded to before, Thursaflokkurinn are from Iceland. This live
album is their third or fourth release.

Baby Grandmothers |
Somebody Keeps Calling My Name |
Love Proge |
1968 |
Love Records |
|
There is not much known about this group. Apparently, they only released one
single, of which this song is the extended version. This is only on the
Love Proge compilation cd. I am surmising that this group is from Sweden,
as Kenny Håkansson is the guitarist.
