Evil In Oslo

If Black Stabat Mater can be seen as moving into new terrains, then Evil In Oslo can serve as a summing up of the previous years, although there is also a clear link between the albums. While the nine live performances presented here all come from their first three studio albums, most are lengthy workouts again showing Hedvig as a very confident and accomplished solo guitarist.

Recorded at Oslo clubs John Dee and Buckley´s, Evil In Oslo is simply a kick ass live album (never thought we´d ever use that expression, but there you go), with a very high level of musicianship and a perfect balance between freedom and discipline. These hi-res recordings capture both the energy level and all the details in a marvellous way, and this is simply a must have for all HMT fans! Alternatively, it is the perfect introduction for the curious newcomer. Liner notes by the Richard Williams.
