GENTLE KNIFE

Norwegian band GENTLE KNIFE was formed back in 2012, with a stated aim to explore vintage era progressive rock with a modern twist. Their self-titled debut album appeared in the summer of 2015 through the Norwegian indie label Bajkal Records.

Those who tend to enjoy vintage era progressive rock with eclectic qualities and recurring dark atmospheres should find this debut album by Gentle Knife to be of interest. A certain affection for bands that are fond of using the saxophone will be needed, and I'd hazard a guess that among those who find a band like Van der Graaf Generator to be among the more interesting bands that ever appeared, there will be quite a few people who will be charmed by the landscapes explored by this Norwegian band. All in all, this is a fine, good quality debut by a promising band.
