GAZPACHO Missa Atropos

Detailný popis:

2011 STUDIO ALBUM FROM ACCLAIMED NORWEGIAN POST-PROGRESSIVE ART ROCKERS NOW ON SINGLE LP FOR THE FIRST TIME

‘Missa Atropos’ was the 2011 studio album from acclaimed Norwegian Post-Progressive band Gazpacho & their first for the Kscope label.

The follow-up to 2009's ‘Tick Tock’, ‘Missa Atropos’ is an ambitious concept album. Dealing with themes of death, fear & loneliness, it combines the band's musical skills & haunting songwriting to create a beautiful & hypnotic piece of art.

Darker than the bands’ two previous albums, it still features many distinctive Gazpacho characteristics, such as ambient passages, classical influences, elements of world music & samples of coded information sent during the cold war on short wave radio.

Formed in Oslo in 1996 by childhood friends Jon-Arne Vilbo & Thomas Andersen along with Jan-Henrik Ohme (later joined by Mikael Kromer, Robert R Johansen & Kristian Torp), Gazpacho have honed their unique sound over a string of critically acclaimed albums & numerous tours, including several with long-time supporters Marillion.

These albums & tours, the internet & word-of-mouth praise that greeted them, have helped the band build a substantial international fan base. Kscope are now proud to present this important album on single LP for the first time ever.

“A delightfully mellifluous selection. They won’t be Norway’s best kept secret much longer” Jerry Ewing Classic Rock Prog
