Karisma Reco

Madder Mortem: Old Eyes New Heart [CD]

Since their formation in 2013, Swedish progressive rock band Agusa has carved out a distinct name for themselves in the world of retro prog, Scandinavian folk rock and Krautrock. Their evocative sound and immersive compositions made such an impact that Karisma Records is now proud to present a new live album from the band. Agusa has shown themselves as a formidable live band, which is why this is already the bands 4th live album. "Panacea" documents a powerful show, was recorded at the Progressive Circus Festival in Malmö on the 28th of September 2024. The album consists of only three songs, but they are all live favourites, with good reason. "Panacea" showcases what a brilliant live band Agusa is. Mixed by Michael Miño, and mastered by Magnus Lindberg (Cult of Luna, Dina Ögon, Crippled Black Phoenix)

5th album from Wobbler. If there is one band who has captured the sound of the golden age of Progressive Rock (1969 â_" 1975) without sounding regressive or copycat, it is the Norwegian band Wobbler.

Debut solo album from Wobbler's Lars Fredrik Frøislie! Fitting perfectly into the 70s prog-rock tradition where the keyboardist makes a solo album between the band albums, this is music Frøislie has been doing, mostly alone, during the pandemic. Had it not been for the pandemic, much of the material would probably have ended up on a new Wobbler album - but then run through the Wobbler grinder and with English lyrics. In other words, this is unpeeled and raw, as spontaneous as possible without going through too many rounds of processing. Trying to preserve the impulsive - much of what you hear is improvised, and one-takes (preferably with playing errors and piano strings that break and the like). Trying to preserve the human aspect to a large extent, avoiding click tracks, auto-tune, MIDI or too much technology. Expect lots of old analogue keyboards such as cembalo, Mellotron, MiniMoog, Yamaha CP70 and Hammond organ.
