Krokofant
This event has already taken place.Norway
:: Tom Hasslan - guitar
:: Jorgen Mathisen - saxophone
:: Axel Skalstad - drums
The music of this young Norwegian band comes across as an eruptive and energetic storm, and yet its structural underpinning is carefully crafted. On the surface, you might draw parallels to the deliriously raging improvisational style of an early Peter Brötzmann, but underneath you’ll discover an intellectuality inspired by progressive rock à la King Crimson and a kind of jazz-rock fusion that hasn’t sold out to commercialism. It smacks of the early recordings of Mahavishnu Orchestra or of early electric Miles Davis. The trio Krokofant emphasizes a new rock music that no longer clings to conventional forms. It’s music at the edge, pushing the mind to the point where order starts to run wild.
