Shliffiana

Very obscure Norwegian band. They played a kind of very spacey and symphonic progressive with lot of mellotrons and spacey electronic effects. I really like their style, but the production of this record sounds unfortunately very home-made and amateurish. But the songs and their sound is quite interesting. "Isle of Kwai" is a mighty piece of spacey symphonic, and mellotron simply can't sound bad! "Bondage" has some excellent moog and loads of spacey effects, and is quite fun. "Death Hymn" is very powerful, but the vocalist's accent is unfortunately quite clear. And "The Trip" is simply just a good melody. The album is worth owning if you collect 70's progressive, but if you're looking for pure perfection I don't think you will find this album very satisfying.
