To be fair I'm probably biased. I'm an Alice Cooper fan and have always considered Alice Cooper (the band) to be small p progressive. Even so, the seamless working of foreign musical sensibilities into a modern rock context alone makes it better than the Siversten ( which to be fair again I had never heard before to today) as a progressive piece. The ending crescendo of halo of flies gong from simple quiet bass/drums to all out sonic explosion makes it a worthy adversary to any prog ROCK music. |
It's no big surprise you haven't heard about Halvdan Sivertsen, he's a beloved Norwegian folk singer who sings exclusively in Norwegian.
I'm actually quite blown away by that track, because it is so different from his normal stuff.
