Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut album from the Norwegian instrumental trio is a blistering, incredibly heavy reinvigoration of 1970s jazz-rock and progressive fusion. Driven by St氓le Storl酶kken's wildly aggressive Hammond organ and Fender Rhodes wizardry, the tracks feature deep, driving grooves and virtuosic improvisation that borders on stoner rock intensity. It established the group as a phenomenal, high-octane live act.
