Folque
O nome já diz tudo: folk norueguês. Gostei do som dos caras. Quem gosta de Steeleye Span vai gostar.

Outra peróla escandinava, dessa vez um hard prog da Noruega. Vale muito a pena!

Popol Ace
Em 1975 a banda norueguesa progressiva Popol Vuh mudou o nome para Popol Ace, não confundir com a banda Krautrock Popol Vuh (mesmo nome). Este é o primeiro disco dessa nova fase. Discaço!

Bo Hansson
Hansson & Karlsson
Clássico de Bo Hansson e Katte Karlsson. Imperdível!
In 1966, Swedish keyboardist BO HANSSON, known especially for his album based on JRR Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings", formed a partnership with drummer JANNE KARLSSON. The latter had been introduced to HANSSON by his former Merrymen bandmate Bill Öhrström, who had become an A&R man and producer at Polydor Sweden. The two musicians immediately hit it off, and were signed by Polydor.
HANSSON & KARLSSON released three albums of uptempo, Hammond organ-based music between 1967 and 1969. They became immensely popular in their home country and Europe, and even reached the ear of JIMI HENDRIX, who took time out from his 1967 tour to jam with the duo at the Klub Filips in Stockholm. Hendrix went on to record the HANSSON song, "Tax Free". The end came in 1969, when KARLSSON became a successful comedian and TV host, and HANSSON decided to break up the partnership and embark on his solo career. ProgArchives.

Trettioåriga Kriget
Legendary Swedish heavy-progressive who released 6 albums between 1974 and 1992 (plus a retrospective in 1996) and who plan to release a new album in fall 2003. However, the only addition to the normal guitar, bass and drums instrumentation is some mellotron here and there. It´s musical excellence with plenty of extended gratuitous guitar jams and very intricate lyrics. I´d like to recommend this band to everyone but since the lyrics are in swedish and such a big part of the music perhaps some might not understand it. In several ways, TRETTIOARIGA KRIGET ("The 30-year War" in English) can be compare to ANGLAGARD and LANDBERK to sense their influence.
The first, self-titled is in many ways like RUSH circa 1980. "Krigssang" is an album that fans of 70's rock in general will enjoy, and not just progressive rock listeners. In sum, this is one of the defining Scandinavian prog albums. The first two albums are only for the completist and necessary for any serious exploration of the region. The later albums are considerably better. ProgArchives

Mr. Brown
A Swedish prog classic, originally released in '77, for the first time on CD. Symphonic prog in the same school as FOCUS and Swedish legends KAIPA and with a singer that's been compared with bigshots like Justin Hayward, Roger Waters and Bob Dylan. This album contains lyrics both in swedish and english and the melodies are often built around mellotrons, piano and hammond. The atmospheric lush instrumental passages combined with the strong melodies truly makes MR. BROWN - "Mellan tre ögon" a milestone in progressive music history. First time on CD with band history out now!! CD baby.
Uma peróla rara sueca!
