Description
Their sixth album Kaptein Kaos was recorded at the dUb Studio in Oslo and at the Trollskogen Recording Facilities, the album has been mixed by Endre Kirkesola (Sirenia, Carpathian Forest). Once again, the striking artwork is by Swedish Cartoonist Jonas Darnell and design Terje Johnsen, both long-time collaborators of the band.
Like previous albums, Kaptein Kaos is set in a fantasy world of trolls. It tells the story of the Kaptein Kaos, who, according to the band is an inventor who creates a time machine and goes on an expedition across time to see some sights, taste some stuff and has some fun in ways that are exclusively available to people with time machines. Musically though, it seems that this time Trollfest have slightly changed direction.
Blastbeats and screaming says the band have given way to juicy rock grooves and rich melody lines, and the world music influence, which has been our trademark both in our use of instruments as well as melodies, has expanded to include tango rhythms, Asian and Scandinavian folk music as well, of course, as our Eastern European influences for which we are known.
Korpiklaani's Jonne Jrvel praises the album: Trollfest are even more catchy, more melodic and more twisted than ever with their new Kaptein Kaos album. I really like its (good way) sick arrangements and instrumentation.Unbelievable album!"
