Third album from a free spirited power trio that should need no long introduction by now.

The hand in glove rhythm section of Nilssen-Love and Håker Flaten has graced a large number of recordings over the years. Björkenheim has been around since recording with Edvard Vesala and Krakatau for ECM back in the days. As with their previous albums Scorch Trio and Luggumt, Brolt is an old school analogue recording, meaning the band set up in one room, instruments and amps miked up with vintage microphones, playing live and recording to analogue multitrack tape with no overdubs and editing and then mixing down to quarter inch analogue tape. There´s a slightly different vibe to ”Brolt” than that of its predecessors, maybe caused by the change of studio or the fact that they specifically set out to make it more of an ensemble recording where all instruments are treated equally. Not forgetting the fact that they went into the studio straight after a short, but very hectic tour of Europe and Japan, explaining the more loose live feel of many of the tracks.
