May 31, 2020 James Weaver

GÖSTA BERLINGS SAGA have announced a new album!

Titled Konkret Musik, the upcoming album from the Swedish progressive rock instrumentalists is their sixth studio album and is scheduled to be released in July this year, via InsideOut Music.

Recorded, mixed and produced by Daniel Fagerström [VIAGRA BOYS, SKULL DEFEKTS, NINA KINERT, etc.] and Anton Sundell [TONBRUKET, ANE BRUN, etc.] at Studio Bruket and Magix Playground, Konkret Musik contains 12 explosive tracks filled with experimental instrumental rock.

Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, “in the midst of these weird and complex times, we’re very glad to present new music. Our new album Konkret Musik is probably the most varied GBS record to this date, with minimalism and total maximalism in unholy alliance. Can’t wait to share it with you!”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song to be shared from the upcoming album; Basement Traps. Speaking about the track and its accompanying music video, the band continues, “the first single off Konkret Musik displays one of the many flavours of the new album. This minimalistic, rhythmic and synth-focused track and its naive melody lines, is released with surprisingly suitable timing. With a video paying tribute to the world’s medical expertise, and audio inspired by the legacy of Florian Schneider, Basement Traps feels like a relevant and safe place in these weird and turbulent times.”
