Ring Van Mobius - The 3rd Majesty (LP)
This is an Apollon Records release.
This edition is a single LP on black vinyl in gatefold cover.
Analog purists Ring Van Möbius are known for being true to the original progressive rock philosophy, combining 60’s/70’s instruments with the old art of tape recording, adding their own touch of musical creative madness.
The Norwegian trio delivers their second album The 3rd Majesty in mesmerizing manner - a Hammond-driven progressive pearl that could just as easily have been released in 1971 as in 2020. This epic record includes lengthy opuses - incorporating instruments such as tubular bells, theremin, a string quartet, timpani, and a massive modular synthesizer to name a few, in addition to the raw power of the Hammond organ, Fender Rhodes, drums and electric bass guitar – all recorded in their Spectral Tape Studio and mastered at Lunds Lyd. The lyrical themes are of a rather abstract nature, dealing with the great universal questions, as well as saddening relevant issues of today’s society.
“This album stands as a tasteful, dynamic journey through the soundscapes of nostalgic joy!”
