The first from Gosta Berlings Saga: Tid ar Ljud from 2006, limited time only









Information from discogs:

Gösta Berlings Saga - obviously drawing their name from the Nobel Prize laureate Selma Lagerlöf's 1891 novel (and/or the 1924 classic silent movie by the same name) - are a Swedish, experimental / progressive, instrumental rock band originating from Stockholm suburb Vällingby, where the the duo Pelikaan, consisting of Alexander Ship on drums and David Lundberg on organ, started playing around 2000, reputedly inspired by the late 1960's, Swedish jazz rock duo Hansson & Karlsson. As such, they recorded a demo (that also gave name to their own Studio Pelikaan). In 2004, the band expanded to a four- or five-piece outfit, drawing from a far wider range of influences, referencing Samla Mammas Manna, King Crimson and RIO / Zeuhl genres.

Their first album is by far their best. It's just stunningly inventive and interesting and after all this time and music, shockingly original though there are definite hints of old Samla, Het Pandorra, and other guitar-based classics like Fripp's material incl. later KC.
