ARABS IN ASPIC
LIVE AT AVANTGARDEN (BLUE VINYL)

"Live at Avantgarden" is the 7th release from Norwegian progressive rock band Arabs in Aspic. It’s their very first Live album and it was recorded in their hometown of Trondheim the 13th of January this year celebrating the success of their last album “Syndenes Magi”. Focusing on an old-school sound, the use of Hammond organs, Mellotron, Rhodes, Space Echo, vintage guitars it was a split gig with fellow norwegians Wobbler!
The band consists of Jostein Smeby, Eskil Nyhus, Stig A. Jørgensen and Erik Paulsen and added to live-line up was Alessandro Elide on percussion , all with many years of musical experience, from metal and impro to pop and funk. The mix of different musical backgrounds creates a special symbiosis in this ensemble, which makes Arabs in Aspic stand out from many other, more classic bands.
