Setlist, courtesy of MP’s Facebook account:
real again
mad sun
maypole
dank state
feel (Reine on mellotron)chariot of the sun
sentinels
serpentine
the promise
starhammer
patterns
the tower
united debased
cosmoctopushotel daedalus (reine on mellotron)
uberpilgrim (reine on guitar)
rock bottom (reine on guitar)Concert was a bit of a mixed bag for me. The smooth and seamless transition from Cold & Bored to Whip That Ghost was worth the price of admission alone
Some songs worked very well with Olaf on drums, while some did not…As usual the heroes are LarsM & Spacebandit who has uploaded the auditory evidence on Dime. You guys forever rule!
And regarding Black As Night, could it be this one?
All Tomorrow’s Parties by Velvet Underground
Saw Instagram snippets of Mad Sun, Spin Spin Spin, Sideway Spiral I and On My Pillow. So that’s promising
FYI, Rockefeller is now sold out.
Yeah, this one needed a few spins. Because honestly, after the first listen I thought it was pretty boring (except 2-3 songs)
The arrangements are a bit monotonous, only 3 songs have like full band backing.But repeated listens have brought out the melodies and hooks (it is Bent’s songwriting after all )
Kudos to Josefin Runsten on violin & viola; her strings on Hotel Daedalus and The Rapture really enhance those songs. I’m honestly curious how the stuff sounded before Fiske/Swahn beefed it up.
A very summer-y record, without a doubt.Favorite songs: Sentinels, W.C.A, Hotel Daedalus and The Rapture. I think Sentinels and Hotel Daedalus have the biggest potential for being stretched out live.
Worst song: Dank State (that chorus is so laughably half-assed )
Rockefeller in September
Got it in the mail today, too.
About to spin the album now
From the wording of that Instagram post, it looks like the Norway tour with Olaf Olsen will be pretty straightforward.
While the tour with Ingvald Vassbø looks to be more far-out and psychedelic.
Olaf Olsen is a good choice. He’s got the chops and the skills.
But I’m not sure if he is considered a permanent solution just yet.
08.09.2023 NO Kongsberg – Energimølla
02.09.2023 NO Hamar – Festiviteten
Nevermind, I’m blind.
Great news! Nordenfjeldske Grammofonselskab it is.
Guessing we’ll get songs like Cold & Bored + Dank State that were previewed live in 2021 + 2022.
Excited to see if this is a pure acoustic album, or if it has evolved into something else
Also the picture of Bent & Snah playing Ludo is hilarious. Any deep symbolism behind that picture? :P
