Kaipa is the Swedish
prog rock institution bar none! Founded all the way back in 1973, releasing a
dozen studio albums, all with Hans Lundin as the mainstay of the band. Sure many
know them because Roine Stolt has been a part of the band also, but Hans Lundin
is the only remaining member of the original line-up in Ura Kaipa.
"Sattyg" is the fourth album
since Roine left the band after the recording of "Mindrevolutions" in 2005, and
the band has only grown stronger and tighter ever since releasing 3 excellent
Swedish prog rock albums, leading up to this, their brand new masterpiece!
Because this in simply one the best and most complete Swedish retro prog rock
albums ever released.
Their blend of folk, prog
and fusion really comes together on this album, and they show the prog world how
a prog rock album with strong Swedish roots is put together! "Sattyg" combines
everything their three previous albums have lead up to, and takes their music to
new levels and into new territories, and that without sacrificing their
trademark sound.
No need to go into specifics
here; this is a mandatory purchase for all prog rock fans, and especially fans
of the mighty Swedish scene.
Brilliant!
