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.
Quote:This is just awesome. Like so many of your recommendations. Keep em coming!Glad, that you liked Shiva! I would recommend to check their debut EP from 2015, it's also great: https://shivathedestructor.bandcamp.com/album/supreme-light-ep.
Plus 2 more stoner/psychedelic bands from Ukraine, that you may dig:
https://somaliyachtclub.bandcamp.com/album/the-sea
https://slowridehome.bandcamp.com/album/the-great-southern-supercluster
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: .

Their debut album "Storm" has been released last year on Major Seven Music.
https://open.spotify.com/album/4TjbrcGL0sXy3EgSUDHckF (no bandcamp unfortunately).
