I’m a die-hard fan of Norwegian label, Rune Grammofon, embracing their cool principal in independent and experimental music as well as art…….because of that, I will normally buy their releases even I didn’t hear the band or their songs…….you can say I’m in 100% loyalty and in faith of their music choices and releases as well as their gorgeous cover art!!! Honestly, not really a real let down so far for many of such blind purchase for their new artists, haha!!! So, it’s not surprised I bought this one by a blind purchase again as I never heard of the band and their works!!.......nevertheless, once again after listening, it’s like an exciting adventure, a satisfying and rewarding music adventure that I expect from indie muisc…..
The Last Hurrah!!, according to Rune Grammofon’s web site, “is a new project from HP Gundersen, a well known producer, artist, musical partner, creative force, mentor and a ture music enthusiast from Bergen, Norway…..Spiritual Non-believers” is a fascinating and lovely mix of acoustic drone guitar, cosmic raga, pure pop and the very local take on country music so special for the west coast of Norway.”……….you can expect something weird from the horrifying but interesting cover art work like dark drone ambient stuff, etc..….but in fact, they are just fake hair and hoodie jacket hanging on the wall and also no dark heavy music here……..after putting the vinyl on my turntable, it is also surprising that the album is packed with those interesting pedal steel drone country/gospel/blue folk with some California surf-rock rhythm and a 60s like lo-fi high-pitch appalachian folk rock female vocal……sometime also weaved with some oddball freak folk vibe!!! (that I’m totally not expecting the album to be like that) ...........a really special album with kinky music style, rich musical arrangements and refreshing music adventure!!!
