Ten years after it’s initial release, the classic Seven Impale debut album “City of the Sun” is finally available on vinyl again! This 10 th anniversary edition also an insert sheet with lyrics and comments from both the band and Enslaved’s Ivar Bjørnson. The album has a firm basis in classic Progressive Rock, but is highly diversified The band is never afraid to explore much harder soundscapes than usually is expected in Progressive Rock, utilizing elements normally only found in the metal genre. And did we mention saxophone? There’s saxophone, bringing loads of Jazzy elements into the mix as well.
The band says: “The recording and assembling of “City of the Sun” was a valuable learning experience,and we are forever thankful for the friendship we’ve built with our producer Iver Sandøy. The process of making this record put all seven of us into a rather confined space,recording it the good old way. Not a click track or grid in sight! It was a sweaty, intimate experience that seems to have been the recipe for.. sweaty, intimate and Jazzy Prog Rock..! Iver will always be that “missing” seventh impala, and we will without hesitation return to Solslottet for the golden touches of the Sun King Himself.
