Caligonaut - Magnified as Giants [CD]

Caligonaut announces the release of his debut solo album Magnified as Giants. Caligonaut is a solo project by artist Ole Michael Bj¯rndal, a guitarist best known for his work with Oak, Airbag and Bj¯rn Riis Band. Bj¯rndal has composed the music, written the lyrics and also performs leadvocals and guitars. The performers on the record include members of Wobbler, Airbag, Oak, Pymlico and Meer, and a special guest appearance by Norwegian church organ legend Iver Kleive. Magnified as Giants contains four songs within a classic prog rock landscape inspired by the guitar and bass work of King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Genesis and Rush but blended with the more modern sounds of Tool and Opeth. Several of the pieces are written in Robert Fripp new standard tuning. The album also features an extended use of vintage keyboards played by Wobbler keyboardist Lars Fredrik Fr¯islie. Caligonaut is a word composed of the Latin words for mist or dimness,caligo & and traveller/navigator, & naut, lyrical themes that are also prominent on the album. The album artwork was created by visual artist Marte Bj¯rndal, who has held exhibitions in Brazil, South Africa, China and Russia. The photography is by Anne-Marie Forker, known primarily for her work with Marillion. The album is mixed by Lars Fredrik Fr¯islie and mastered by Jacob Holm-Lupo.
