GlueRelease info:1996—BMG (Norway)—RCA 74321 411382 Availability:Norway Ecto priority:Highly recommended Group members:Christine Sandtorv—vocal, guitar, 12-string guitar, harmony vocal, piano Guest artists:Bjarte Ludvigsen—drums, loop, tambourine, percussion Produced by:Knut Bøhn Comments:I bought the debut album by a new norwegian band called Ephemera today. I would say that after listening to it 2 times through, it is as good as Velvet Belly's The Landing. The band consists mainly of 3 women all with wonderful voices. The album itself is very acoustic-oriented, focused on the vocals. Definitly Ecto.... Very promising up to now, very promising. "Everything" has got to be one of the most beautiful songs ever written. (onealien@mo.himolde.no) |
