Fjorden Baby!




Prepare yourselves for some local Bergen rock in the blog today!  The guys in Fjorden Baby! managed to  get street artist DOLK to illustrate the cover and the inlay for their album  "Se deg rundt i rommet" (ie "Take a look around the room") (Fjorden Biznizz 2011). This is DOLK´s first record cover, and I guess I should get the vinyl version to get some size to the art (so far I have only bought files, and  hope that makes it OK to take a picture in the shop  of the inlay).

And the music is OK to, think Manchester and Happy Mondays or thereabout? At least that is what most reviewers already said, and the splattervideo for the track "Rendezvous" below makes me think of the "colorful" Stone Roses.

The Norwegian all round saxophone player (from free jazz to Datarock) Kjetil Møster may be heard on two tracks too.
