ALRUNE ROD


ALRUNES ROD- (1969 SONET)

This is Denmark's Alrune Rod first album, released in 1969, and it is an epic piece of psyche/prog greatness. Full of long, expansive arrangements and slow, doomy scapes of sound. A treasure of pure Scandinavian acid eccentricity.

*Rock musician and musicologist Julian Cope has described their first two albums as:

"sounding somewhere between early Pink Floyd, an emptier Arthur Brown’s Kingdom Come, and PAWN HEARTS-period Van Der Graaf Generator"
