In the mystical realm where heavy psychedelic rock meets the meditative expanses of doom, there exists a sonic entity that defies categorization – SUPERLYNX. Celebrating a decade of musical transcendence, their latest release, “4 10,” is a testament to their evolution as a band, pushing boundaries and creating a sound so unique it almost becomes a genre of its own.
From the very first note, “4 10” sweeps you into a realm of ethereal intensity. The album’s genius lies in its ability to seamlessly blend heavy psychedelic rock elements with the contemplative depths of meditative atmospheres, all while entwined with droning riffs that reverberate through your very soul. SUPERLYNX, in their musical alchemy, conjures an auditory experience that feels like traversing through cosmic landscapes, each track a journey into the unknown.
The addition of guitarist Espen Krøll to the original trio – Pia, Ole, and Daniel – amplifies their sonic arsenal, adding layers of complexity to their compositions. His presence on stage elevates their live performances to new heights, infusing the audience with an even fuller, more immersive sound. The band’s enthusiasm for this expansion is palpable, reflecting in the synergy of their collective artistry.
The name SUPERLYNX, inspired by the elusive Lynx, encapsulates the essence of their music. Like the creature they are named after, their sound is simultaneously massive and heavy, yet fragile and profound. The band’s connection to nature and the animal realm is a theme that resonates throughout their music, underscoring the duality of their compositions. Much like the Lynx’s luminous eyes, SUPERLYNX’s music illuminates the listener’s soul, casting a mesmerizing light even in the darkest musical landscapes.
“4 10” transcends the conventional boundaries of genre, inviting listeners on a transformative sonic odyssey. Each track is a chapter, a poetic exploration of sound and emotion, expertly woven together by the hands of true artisans. As SUPERLYNX embarks on their tenth year, this album stands as a magnum opus, a testament to their artistic vision and the boundless possibilities of musical expression.
