What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Mingus feeling happy.

Fredrik Ness Sevendal: 'No Foly Bow' (Apartment) Seven track North European drone, strum and hum tones. Extended guitar fuzz, whistling feedback and quiet acoustic interplay between the midnight quiet, dark day moods and spacious modes. Some of the guitars ring as if icy tundras have become deserts of snow and ice, there's hardly anything left but the tones that reverberate. If you, like our man at the helm, are into Norwegian Psych, stretched out guitar phases and incidental percussive textures, then you'll no doubt warm to this. Fans of Six Organs Of Admittance, Voice of The Seven Woods and the school of non-challenging instrumental Psych-Folk will surely enjoy these extended jams and tracks.

What the label says:

Fredrik Ness Sevendal has been a part of the experimental music scene in Norway for around 10 years and play in bands like DEL, Slowburn, Kobi, We Snakes, and Norwegian noise orchestra. Both lo-fi pop, soundscapes, free-noise and various projects for improvised music. As a solo artist he has released a couple of 7"'es, a CD-r and a collaboration Lp (with Bill Wood) and can be found on various compilations. "No foly Bow" is his first full-lenght cd and might be a little step out of the obscurity. Much of his work is based around free-noise and guitar-drones. There is drones on this cd too, though this record has got a more various and melodic content. Some songs are humble and quiet guitartunes while others are filled with strumming accoustic instruments and layers of fiddle-like sounds inspired by the repetative tunes of Norwegian folk music. There is also a couple of more melodic lo-fi pop tracks, but with only occasional vocal sounds. Common for the songs on this cd is the homespun production, the love of guitar and other string-instruments, knobturning and effetcs. Most of the songs have seen the light of day trough improvisation. Fredrik has also collaborated with people like New Zealand guitarist Bill Wood (1/3 octave band), Makoto Kawabata (Acid Mothers Temple..etc.), Mitsuru Tabata (Zeni Geva etc.), and Mark Francombe (Ex-Cranes/Uncle Ian), Lasse Marhaug, Crazy River..among others. This is an Apartment records/Humbug records joint-release.

About the humble CD:

The CD is essentially a small portable face mirror which has an extra feature of being able to play music (through a thing known as a CD player). These CD's are a modern invention hence them being all shiny and digital. They can hold about 80 minutes of music and apparently are indestructible as you can smear jam on them and they still play (not as nourishing as toast mind you but when you're hungry.....). They sound crystal clear and are tiny convenient things. They lack the charm and warmth of their old analogue counterparts but their portability, convenience and ease of being duplicated make them a perfect thing of a thing for most folks. Jewel cases are the worst thing ever though and they really need to stop.
