Some more psychedelic rock to end the week: Walrus - Walrus (2013)



Another discovery I had in 2013 was this Swedish group (with Mattias Olsson from Änglagård) playing psychedelic/kraurock/progressive rock. There's a terrific use of the various instruments here, the violin and keyboards provide a haunting atmosphere as the propulsive rhythm section follows up with their counteracting piece, all together achieving a dynamic and beautiful album.

  1. Excellent to see you back writing again, Assaf!

    I really like this album as well, and penned a few thoughts last year: http://undertheradarcds.blogspot.com/2013/04/walrus-sweden.html
