Orpheus Label Night

After a couple of not so great concerts like Lack at Apperatet with way too many people and a realy shitty, lousy punkevening at Blågards Medborgerhus, yesterday at Studenterhuset was another fantastic night in the name of psyche! The evening was called Orpheus Label Night and featured Lotus Krokus, Nicolai Vilhelm Tell and Aron and the Blackbeacon Orkestra. Lotus Krokus opened with their cute and naive folkrock. They had added flute and steel guitar with fuzz and wah which was pretty cool. Yet, the music is a little too naive and dumb to really touch your soul. Next up was Nicolai Tell and we were pushed a little more in the rock'ish way, but still with the pretty naive and hippie like expresseion. Good performance, but not anything that moved the ground after the last tune. But then ... then the earth moved. Aron entered and gave a completely convincing lession in how psyched out horror folk has to sound. Arons lyrics is fucking brilliant and almost genious in their simple form. In the band was Henrik from On Trial on guitar making waves with his acidic playing. Garage Claus smacked up the drums and added some way out backing vocal. Soulshaking performance ...
