Product Description
Arabs in Aspic, hailing from Trondheim, Norway, has been the leading force of 70s - inspired progressive and proto - hard rock in mid - Norway for 15 years. Their sound is a delightful blend of loud, heavy guitars and drums, 12 - string acoustics, funky bass and percussion, wailing Hammond organs, soft Rhodes, Mellotrons, and 70s synths, all topped with rich vocal harmonies. After the 'Far Out in Aradabia' release, the band played numerous shows. They recruited Hammond virtuoso Stig Arve Jørgensen on keys and backing vocals after watching his performance of Focus's 'Hocus Pocus'. This led to new material that was more technical and progressive. The 2010 album 'Strange Frame of Mind' serves as a bridge between the early days of Arabs in Aspic and the band we know today. The band underwent significant changes and took a break for a couple of years. Erik Paulsen joined on bass, shifting the sound to a more progressive and classic 70s style. The album was recorded at Studio Studio, run by TNT guitarist Ronnie Le Tekrø. However, the initial mastering by a guy aiming for an 80s power - metal sound left the band dissatisfied. So, it has been re - mastered by Jacob Holm - Lupo. This album has been out of print for a long time, and now it's getting a proper re - release. This is an officially licensed Arabs in Aspic CD in a Jewel Case. Don't miss out on this piece of progressive rock history!
