Løvetann - The Times (2013)

 

The eight album from this band from Norway.

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, lute, mandolin, banjo, keyboards and vocals.

This is the so far final album from this band. It is very probably their final album ever too. Their albums has now been compiled and sold as a six CDs box. I will review that box sometime before the end of this month.

The Times is clocking in at three quarters of an hour.

The music is again a blend of folk-rock and art-rock. There are also a lot of eclectic prog here.

Their albums has become more and more eclectic on each album. This album is pretty close to being an eclectic prog album. I would still label their music as Arctic Prog.

There is some very good guitars here. Mostly guitar solos and harmonies. 

The operatic vocals is also very good here. These vocals is giving Lovetann's music it's own identity.

The vocals are entirely in English and this makes this album more accessible for the English speaking prog rock fans.

The quality is good throughout and this album offer some good value for money. This is perhaps their best album ever.
