Musick that Needed Work - S: Seven that Spells

 

Seven that Spells is a psychedelic / space rosk band from Zagreb, Croatia, formed in 2003 by Niko 'Brain' Potočnjak, the guitarist & producer along with Tomislav Kalousek on bass & Stjepan Jureković on drums.

 



Shortly after this self-released CD they signed to the Russian RAIG label, a well known label among the Russian avant/prog circles. They toured Japan & hooked up with Acid Mothers Temple to record two joint efforts. After that they signed to the prestigious Beta-lactam Ring Records. Throughout their hisory they had had many line-up changes with only founder Niko Potočnjak being a constant member. They are still active today. 

This is their first self-released CD.

  2. Nicely, thanks Nate. I have one of their collaborations with Kawabata Makoto, which is very tasty. It'll be good to get a sense of what they're capable of on their own.

  3. Hope you like their personal sound. I always enjoyed this one but hadn't listened for some time as it had disappeared in the Needing Work dump. Thanks, brother.
