Magnify The Sound - So, Let's Put Things Together (official audio)
Trond Engum´s unique guitar signature demonstrates seamless transitions from high-energy metal riffs to melodic, mellow and melancholic passages. With roots in the early 90s Norwegian metal scene, Trond's guitar playing brings a powerful energy to the music, while the incorporation of unrecognizable guitar sounds and live electronics elevates the overall musical expression in new and intriguing ways. Waadeland´s performance on drums and percussion is a novel mixture of quasi-grooves, experimental improvisation, powerful rock aesthetics, whispering percussive statements, and thematic elements inherited from a tradition of old Norwegian folk drumming.
These musical expressions take you on a journey through a variety of sound "scenes" that are sure to leave you mesmerized. Whether you're looking for high energy or a more contemplative atmosphere, the music seamlessly shifts between different textures, and ranges from the moving to the barely vibrating, - from open landscapes to condensed energy.
