MID-PRICE CD EDITION OF THE 2018 ALBUM FROM NORWAY'S CREATORS OF DARK AND ELEGANT ART ROCK. FEATURING THE SINGLES 'SOYUZ ONE', 'HYPOMANIA', 'EXIT SUITE' & 'EMPEROR BESPOKE' 'Further evidence as to why Gazpacho are a truly enigmatic and special act' 8.5/10 Ghost Cult Following 2015?s lauded album ?Molok?, which reached 16th in BBC Radio 1's Rock Charts, Gazpacho released ?Soyuz? in 2018, which reached #4 and #17 in the UK's Rock & Metal and Independent Albums charts respectively. It joins a series of concept records that started with the critically acclaimed ?Night? in 2007. A band who are used to seizing headlines with bizarre stories, including The Independent (UK) branding ?Molok? as 'An album that could destroy the world', Gazpacho have a holistic approach to the album writing process, imbuing each with a captivating concept. The songs of ?Soyuz? are a series of short interconnected stories of people frozen in time, with the tracks 'Soyuz One' and 'Soyuz Out' written about the first Russian Space capsule and its doomed captain, Komarov. Known for their distinctive art rock that balances tense and beautiful arrangements, sinister and soulful melodic lines, Gazpacho's Soyuz furthers their experimental output. The album was recorded at Krypton Planet & St. Croix Fredrikstad in Norway, engineered by Thomas Andersen, Kristian Torp and Mikael Kroemer, mixed by John Rausch and mastered by Sonovo Mastering's Thor Legvold.
