This 'Fort Bak Lyset' album is one of those rare occasions where I can recall most melodies and structures of the songs after only a few listens. Whether that is about directness or simplicity, I don't know, but this has become an incredible ear-worm of the most satisfying order. I don't consider this music 'catchy' or even accessible. But I know what I like (in your wardrobe........haha).
Some albums just have that 'majik' about them for me. This is one of them.......

The only one I have heard is Riset Bak Speilet. Actually, on Youtube, I gave it a few listens. It was mostly all enjoyable, though the videos look somewhat goofy. However, in the end I only made my mind to buy "Black Swift" on ITunes.

Wow !! These wonderful Norwegians need more exposure. Just acquired the beautiful vinyl version of Fort Bak Lyset and it was love at first listen. The Momraks and half of the amazing Wobbler. Just WOW !! Benedikt plays his Ricky bass very well. Love the vocals in their native tongue. This was such a find. Mind-blowing cover artwork too    Norway, Sweden and Finland providing some of the most exciting Prog these days. For me anyway.

Interesting project indeed. Cool

Checked your promo videoclip now. Various essence here, based upon psychedelic pop leaning, a bit monotonous though.
Looking forward to your full album out soon, good luck. Thumbs Up

An approximate pronounciation for English-speaking readers would be Toosmurke - Too as in Tool, but with a short-sounding vowel, murk as in murky, e as in very. And the r pronounced in the Scandinavian style, which is similar to a Scottish r.

Yes I want one!

All the creativity seems to be coming from Scandinavia these days (Anglagard, Anekdoten, Von Hertzen, Graveyard and the awesome Wobbler).

Tusmørke seems to mean twilight, but how do I pronounce it?

Tusmørke will be releasing their fantastic debut album, "Underjordisk Tusmørke" (Subterranean Twilight) on Termo Records on November 9th. This is for fans of Caravan, Gong, Can, Comus and Black Widow, wonderful, pagan prog/psych with tons of vintage keys from Wobbler/White Willow's Lars Fredrik Frøislie.


Thanks,
Jacob
