(2022) Action & Tension & Space - Tellus
Review:
For their fourth album, the Norwegian instrumental quartet have expanded to a six-piece, adding Sigbjorn Apeland on harmonium and Fender Rhodes, and Stale Liavik Solberg on extra percussion. ‘Chromosomes’ mixes clean, propulsive space-rock with fractured, modal electric ragas over a steady motorik beat before Tellus‘ takes us to a gentler space, lit by lap steel and double bass. For an album recorded in the depths of a Scandinavian winter, this brief interlude sounds like a hazy sunny day. The band’s jazz chops come out on Trinity And The Holy Ghost’, on which a funky groove uncoils into stretched-out wah guitar, before settling into a sparse, percussive landscape that Miles and Sly have both explored previously. On ‘Schweppes And Koskenkorva’, steel band drums and trippy guitar lead you away from the campfire and into the hallucinatory darkness, where the 14-minute slow burn of The Last Petrol Station Before Hardangervidda’ reverberates into the void.
