SWEDISH PROGRESSIVE BAND ANEKDOTEN UNVEIL THEIR FIRST ALBUM IN EIGHT YEARS. Including download card. Swedish Progressive pioneers Anekdoten return after an eight year hiatus with their sixth album Until The Ghosts Are Gone. The band has delivered a moody sonic adventure with penetrating melodies from singer/guitarist Nicklas Barker, evocative mellotron soundscapes from Anna Sofi Dahlberg, underpinned by Jan Erik Liljeström's grinding bass and Peter Nordins defined drums and sizzling cymbals. There's guest appearances from old friends Per Wiberg (Ex-Opeth) on organ and Gustav Nygren (New Rose) on sax as well as two Englishmen, virtuoso flautist Theo Travis (Steven Wilson, Robert Fripp, David Sylvian) and guitarist Marty Willson-Piper (The Church, All About Eve, The Saints). Jan Erik says: "When we started out we had the ambition to take things to a higher level and I believe we succeeded. Listening to one song will take you to quite a few different places and listening through the whole thing is quite a journey. I feel this is music to get excited about."
