Pixie Ninja: With vintage instruments….

Tweet

So far this year astonishingly little prog music has come from Norwegian bands. That’s why it’s great that Pixie Ninja soon will be releasing the album Colours Out Of Space. This is the second album by the Scandinavian progband Pixie Ninja.

Similar to their debut album, Colours Out Of Space is fully instrumental, but unlike their previous release this album is heavily influenced by some of the short stories written by The Godfather of horror fiction: Howard Phillips Lovecraft.

With vintage instruments like the Orchestron, maestrovox, fender rhodes and mellotrons suddenly crashing into twisted samples and modern synthesizers, Colours out of space will take you on a cosmic journey with its raw explosiveness and dark ambience, blending progressive rock with atmospheric soundscapes that mixes majestic sections with experimental chaos, Pixie Ninja is putting the listener to the test with this lovecraftian-inspired concept album.
