Not a new band to any of us, I know (although a relatively new song), but, just in case anyone misses this:
Pills, Powders & Passionplays. Very nice! Thanks Sonja Schauhoff.

(see also Sonja’s small clip – Lacuna/Sunrise, I believe.)
I would love to get hold of them too.
This isn’t quite what you’re after, Bernie, but it’s a way of hearing one of them.
@Krist: I’ve been looking for your thoughts on Yay! I’d be interested to read them. I note that not many people are expressing a view.
That’s true about the pre-Tomas Begynelser extracts, annoyingly absent from the record, but what Tomas added to the AA versions was immense.
I think it is difficult to be precise, as tracks from two of the albums were not necessarily being made with a particular album in mind, while the other came out of a specific project. Without doing my research on this one, weren’t tracks on Kingdom of Oblivion and Yay! drawn from a period that overlapped with the Gullvåg Trilogy years, with Yay! tracks in particular being more a product of the COVID times? Maybe Ancient Astronauts came last, and, if so, would be a fitting way for Tomas to sign off.
Someone else will give you a better answer, but that is my vague understanding.
I’m very sorry for anyone who has lost out financially, but it turns out that this postponement might have worked well for me, at least. Circumstances would have dictated that I could not have attended any show at this time. Now I have to hope things will have changed by the time of the rearranged dates. I am intrigued to know who the drummer(s) will be when those dates come around!
A warmish YouTube review from Notes Reviews. He likes their proggiest stuff. (Someone tell him how to pronounce ‘Daedalus’.)
I don’t get why there’s not more love for Kingdom of Oblivion. It’s a great album!
