Album Notes & Community Reviews

Reviving the classic 70s mellotron-heavy sound for a new era, Anekdoten's debut 'Vemod' is a masterful and incredibly dark work of Swedish progressive rock. The band weaves highly complex, heavy arrangements with deeply introspective and melancholic instrumental passages, evoking a profound sense of cold isolation.
