Reviews / Note:
Als Sulatron 2006 wieder und definitiv startete, war die erste CD „Creatures of the Underworld“ von Seid. Später, 2012, veröffentlichte Sulatron ihr geniales Debütalbum „Among the Monster Flowers Again“ erstmalig auf Vinyl, als 10 Jahres Jubiläumsausgabe.
Das ist inzwischen natürlich alles ausverkauft.
Nach unserem Empfinden, gehören Seid aus Trondheim zu den all-time-Favourites aus Norwegen.
Und nun sind wir stolz, Euch das neueste killer psych Album „Weltschmerz, Baby!“ zu präsentieren:
Der typische Seid-Triprock voller eingängiger Melodien, fuzziger Gitarren, kraftvollem Bass und Schlagzeug, vintage Keyboards und genialem Gesang (diesmal in norwegisch, was es irgendwie noch psychedelischer macht)!'
Das ist psychedelischer Prog der Extraklasse!
Die Band feiert hiermit ihr 25 jähriges Bestehen!

If I’m not mistaken this is 5th album by these Norwegians that started out as band back in the 90s dealing with prog, space, psych even folk rock presented through their own unique musical Cosmic prism!
So, “Weltschmerz, Baby!” is Seid‘s new album and this time they decided to dress their compositions with lyrics sung in their native language!
The album consists of 7 songs clock-ticking to a total of 39 minutes. “Haukøye” with its powerful drumming and the tribal rhythm shows a heavy attitude that flirts at times with the early 90s symphonic hard rock.
The weird “Trollmannens Hytte” follows, with an eerie intro some female announcements (or something) under an electro-ambient-psychic- like environment, really experimental but trippy too.
Then, a huge spacey bubble explodes with “Satan i Blodet”, the scenery becomes more space-rock oriented but still heavy (with a pinch of psych), a track that is built upon heavy bass lines and some real hot guitar riffs.
The self-titled “Weltschmerz, Baby!” has a mystical cinematic somehow intro but soon it transforms into a speedy locomotive!
“Coyoteman” is a wonderful addictive druggy tune, tripping the listener to foreign places, a wordless rhythmic tune with a strong psych-a-like soundscape indicating a distorted Alan Parsons Project feeling!
“Moloch vs Gud” with its narrative-style is a cool Middle-Eastern influenced song creating a psychic landscape that continues on the next last song of the album “Mir (Drogarna börjar värka)”, mostly instrumental but with a few sporadic female vocals becoming heavy at times but leaving the listener with a pleasant nostalgic feeling and an intense smell of some Norwegian Wood… Lovely
