Actionfredag is releasing their second album on November 08, 2024! “Lys Fremtid I Mørke” is a life-affirming Prog salute inspired by British brick buildings, Sundborn paintings, and vintage Norwegian children’s TV. Coinciding with the rerouting of Oslo’s buses, the album brings 10 fresh tracks, still defiantly in the major key, maintaining their Swedophile and Canterbury-esque sound, while taking a nostalgic step closer to the band’s childhood stomping grounds in East Oslo.
