>> also "Death's Door", an indie gem…
Bought it as well after watching a trailer (not played yet). Looks like Hyper Light Drifter (personal favorite of the genre), but with graphics from Miyazaki movies.
Not sure, if this topic is still relevant, but in case it is – here is my ultimate Game recommendation: Psychonauts 2 (that was released just yesterday).
It's super awesome and it has a proper title for this forum
.
Jaga Jazzist released their own "The Tower" yesterday – it's a live recording of their awesome last studio album "Pyramid" (2020).

It was masterfully shot on video and is available on YouTube as well.

Kanaan – 2021 – Live in Oslo
https://kanaanband.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-oslo
Quote:Kanaan is a young Norwegian power trio, playing their signature blazing freeform psychedelia, drawing inspiration from krautrock and pre-fusion jazz rock. They have released the studio albums Windborne (2018), Odense Sessions and Double Sun (both 2020) on Danish quality label El Paraiso Records.The new album Live In Oslo is a mix of highlights from performances recorded at Kafé Hærverk, Nasjonal Jazzscene Victoria and Kulturhuset.
Oslo Tapes – 2021 – ØR
https://oslotapes.bandcamp.com/album/r
Quote:ØR – Norwegian for “dizzy, confusing†– is the third album from Italian avant-rock trio OSLO TAPES, and the album keeps what the word promises: a dizzying ride through a feverish dreamscape of imaginary Norwegian highlands painted in cubistic shapes. Hypnotic basslines, repetitive drum patterns, new wave synths and psychedelic guitar textures covering the full width of the stereo room, all seamlessly woven into a gloomy Kraut – tapestry which sounds refreshingly… modern, while paying tribute to the aged genre.the conscience, glad you liked it. Yes, according to discogs (https://www.discogs.com/Giant-Sky-Giant-Sky/release/19018615): "Giant Sky is the solo project of Erlend Viken from Norwegian prog-/post-rockers Soup."
Also from the latest post in Giant Sky's bandcamp community:
"…I know many of you came via my other band Soup, and though I am the composer for both projects, I hope u find something new in this release. big hugs, Erlend".
So there is definitely a connection between these 2 bands

+1 to delving
Another 2 recently released albums, that some of you might like:
Jack O' the Clock – Leaving California
https://cuneiformrecords.bandcamp.com/album/leaving-california
Quote:Jack O’ The Clock’s Leaving California is a highly-detailed musical adventure that reveals new layers with repeated listens, from the opening strums of “Jubilation,†which introduces the record with whimsical folksy fanfare, to the angular harmonized violin lead on the closing track, “Narrow Gate.†Throughout, the songs of bandleader Damon Waitkus recall artists such as David Sylvian, Fairport Convention, and Elliott Smith, while creative musical arrangements showcase the band’s high-level compositional and instrumental chops. Upon first listen, Leaving California offers plenty of hooks, but this is music that truly reveals its depth upon the scrutiny of repeated spins.The band have referred to themselves as 'majestic junk folk' and that's a pretty funny but not inaccurate description for a band who blend folk music and experimental music together in a unique way.
“It’s like hearing some of my favourite 'Old Timey' fiddle and guitar records…updated with compositional ideas worthy of a Stockhausen or a Boulez.†– The Sound Projector

Giant Sky – S/T
https://giantskyband.bandcamp.com/album/giant-sky
Quote:“If Nick Drake and Tame Impala, produced by Brian Eno, co-wrote the new Blade Runner soundtrack, Giant Sky would be itâ€Another great debut album from Ukrainian prog/stoner band Dreadnought in the Pond – what a prolific year so far
!Dreadnought in the Pond – 2021 – 0=1
Juergen:
Quote:It is funny that Motorpsycho performed a new song in 2020 which was not to be released on the forthcoming album in 2021 but maybe on the album after in 2022 (or earlier?).There is plenty of time left in 2021 (it's only a spring).
Perhaps Motorpsycho would like to beat King Gizzard with their 5 albums in 1 year (2017)

Empty Palace – 2021 – Secret Names
https://emptypalace.bandcamp.com/album/secret-names
Second album from very nice psychedelic/prog/retro-hard band from LA.

Plus 2 more stoner/psychedelic bands from Ukraine, that you may dig:
https://somaliyachtclub.bandcamp.com/album/the-sea

Shiva the Destructor – 2021 – Find the Others
https://robustfellow.bandcamp.com/album/find-the-others
Debut album of Ukrainian psychedelic/stoner rock band with nice double vocals and eastern vibes.
Highly recommended if you are into bands like My Sleeping Karma, Colour Haze, Elder, Somali Yacht Club, King Buffalo, etc.
@Bartok, you may buy external DVD drive, that is connected to PC/laptop via USB port, and use it to rip CDs.
For example: https://www.amazon.com/Verbatim-External-DVD-Writer-Compatible/dp/B01BY4PZLE.
>> Check out up and coming British rock band Torus. I think they could appeal to a few people here.
Nice band, thank you. Will wait for their debut LP.
BTW, if you are into grungy/proggy kind of stuff – my highest recommendations (from Ukraine with love
):5R6 – 2015 – Islands
BTW, according to Stickman, release date is April 16:
https://www.stickman-records.com/motorpsycho-announce-new-album-kingdom-of-oblivion/!
I thought "in a couple of months" means May-July – it's good to be wrong
.Plus it's 2LP long :STG: .
