Tuscany, Italy based Progressive Psych Rockers Mr. Bison share new live video for “The Veil” taken from their latest full-length album, “Echoes From The Universe,” out on February 16th, 2024 via Heavy Psych Sounds. Watch the video through the YouTube player below:
Their fifth album “Echoes From The Universe” invites the listener to a prismatic voyage that explores the notion of freedom and destiny through Norse mythology and weaves together a vivid and majestic sonic tapestry that brims with liquid riffs, graceful psychedelia, progressive grandeur and vibrant vocals. A modern and fulfilling space trip that should please fans of the likes of Elder, King Buffalo, Howling Giant.
About the album, the band says: “The theme of ‘Echoes From The Universe’ is the attempt, as human and temporal beings, to escape the idea of an alleged destiny predetermination by managing to build one’s life path through willpower. Its concept is based on the Norse Norns myth, who weave the threads of universal destiny on a tapestry, in which all existence, in a continuous mix of past, present, and future, intersect and influence each other, thereby generating a kaleidoscopic vortex of infinite and unpredictable possibilities. For this reason, we have used them as a symbol of freedom of choice, which never excludes but indeed implies, the element of chance.”
It was produced by guitarist Matteo Barsacchi, mixed by Nicola Giorgetti at the Indipendente Recording Studio and mastered by Carl Saff at Saff Mastering in Chicago. Stream debut single “The Child Of The Night Sky.”
Mr. Bison masters the art of melding Heavy Psychedelia with Progressive elements and evocative soundscapes. Formed in a small coastal town in Tuscany (Italy) in 2009, the band has reinvented their sound through four albums from Stoner Psych to Heavy Progressive Rock, firmly establishing themselves in 2018 with the acclaimed “Holy Oak” and their 2020 concept album “Seaward.” The band has toured Europe and North America several times and played various festivals such as Desertfest Berlin, London and Antwerp, Krach am Back, Duna Jam.
