4.0 excellentkrongey | September 6th 21

These Swedes have such an affable and approachable way of constructing hyper-intricate instrumental rock workouts it's hard to call them Rock In Opposition even though they're official members of the club. Lars Hollmer plays a lot of Yamaha electric grand. Since this album is contemporary with Genesis' Duke, it's interesting to compare the very different ways Banks and Hollmer use the instrument. Witness the quicksilver, hairpin arrangement of Kernel in Short and Long Casting, and the Bartok-like tritones and minor seconds of the opening track Five Single Combats. This is not a keyboard-lead ensemble though. Guitarist Eino Haapala delivers almost every major melody of the album and the crisp rhythm section shines in signature grooves like the industrial pump of The Forge.
