An amazing mix between Haken, Devin Townsend, some Porcupine Tree and some Earthside. Great job!
Thank you so much!
If I could bottle that statement, it'd be called miss dash 😅
This is absolutely wicked, a wild ride from start to finish. And such a strong offering for a debut! I'm very excited to hear what might come next
Wow, this is a masterpiece. This album is my favorite of 2024 so far. Good job guys 👍👍
Thank you so much! I'm super honored to hear it's your top one ❤️
Bliss reminds me of Crystallized by Haken, what a beautiful piece.
Thank you! Haha yeah it's definitely inspired by it at parts!
The algorithm brought me here after listening to Native Construct's Quiet World album for the thousandth time. I was pleasantly surprised and have been replaying the whole thing nonstop all week.
Quiet World is such an amazing work! It's such a shame that the band broke up so early, but at least they gifted us a masterpiece!
Thank you! I'm so happy to hear that! ❤️
persefone and andy gillion i believe lead me here.... algorithm is on point at times
1 month later and I'm still blasting this album almost every day! So good
I can hear some strong Haken influences and I LOVE IT, great job man, what a wonderful debut!
Haha yep definitely one of the bigger influences! Thank you so much ❤
Just got this in my recommended videos. Damn algorithm, you've done a fantastic job bringing me here. Absolutely loving what I'm hearing and so glad that I got brought this way. Killer work. You all should be proud of this album, it's fantastic. I love how you've so much contrast in sections in songs and the phrasing is sublime, especially how you blend things and make them compliment and lead so well into each other. Absolutely nothing falls out of place, everything has a purpose and everything links up so well. You all are masters of that. All killer and no filler.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! And nice to hear that the algorithm is picking it up too haha
What a debut album, I hope it is going to be available on Apple Music soon
Thank you! And it already is, here's the link! music.apple.com/album/1725601485
I really like the song compositions. Something is constantly changing, it doesn’t let you get bored. and the last song lasts 20 minutes, but is just as cool and intense, very good !
Thank you so much, I'm happy you liked it!
Especially considering this is constructed by mainly one person, this is an absolute slice of deliciousness! More power Almö ✊🏻😁
Thank you so much, I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed it! 😁
Okay, I was feeling it by the heavy parts in Vilsen but i was fully convinced by the time I heard how gorgeous Bliss was. This is great, man!
Thank you so much for listening! I'm so happy to hear that ❤️
@@almo-music I found this from where you posted it in the prog snobs Facebook page and I have to say that I like what you've done here even more than I like some of the bands you mentioned as influences. Probably because I can feel all of those influences at different points in the record. You really took this so many different places, everything stays exciting and fresh but I think you also hold onto each part long enough to really soak them in. I think some prog artist can speed through so many different parts so quickly that you don't get time to appreciate them all.
@@EvilMike349Ah nice! Really cool to hear your thoughts, I'm so happy you felt that way about it, thank you again! ♥
Spectacular! Reminds me of W.A.I.T. the end of noise. If ya haven't heard it and like this, check it out.
Thank you! Haven't heard of them before, I'll have to check it out!
16:47 this transition was so unexpected, loved it! Really inspiring and captivating material, going through all emotions. I´m glad this got on my feed!
Thank you! I'm glad you took a shot on listening!
Change is the only constant.
Mesmerizing works Man🤘
Thank You Thank You Thank You Almo🙏
Thank YOU for listening! ❤️
Awesome album. Very technical, emotional, jazzy, keeping my attention at maximum on every second of the all album. Dawn good algorithm on UA-cam. Wishing the others dedicated music streaming platforms can match it.
Thank you so much, really nice to hear! ❤
There's some WILD variety of inspirations on display here. Sounds like you've got a lot of power or speed metal in there somewhere but in this way that's really buried, reminds me of really early Leprous a little bit, but only a little. But that's just the most recurring distinctive element I hear in it. I see tons of people mentioning Haken but, idk, maybe I haven't listened to enough of them (I'm kinda mid on them compared to most prog metal people lol) but this doesn't feel like you're chasing any one thing to me at all. You've clearly got tons of experience and skill, but it also feels like you just kinda blended a lot of it in a bucket then threw it at a wall. It's way fun for that! I wonder if it might be a little TOO eclectic but I've also been awake for like 20 hours crunching a deadline so I don't trust myself lmao, I'm defs gonna give this another listen sometime. Great work either way!
I've been a huge power metal (and melodeath) fan since long before I got into prog so yeah you're definitely not wrong there haha. Earlier Edguy/Avantasia is still one of my favorite things and was a huge gateway for me to really long songs and incorporating orchestral stuff in metal. Thank you!!
@@almo-music I hear you, I found The Bard's Song by Blind Guardian when I was like 12 and it absolutely set me on a path for life lmao. Seriously though congrats on the enormous achievement of releasing a mostly-solo album, it's actually kind of crazy to be able to do all the work required for that yourself.
Take my money! This has all the best elements of my favorite prog-metal. Excellent job mate.
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
What a banger of an album! Awesome work!
Tack mina vänner ❤❤
This is an incredible debut! I'm very glad I found your album
Thank you so much!
Wow, really loving this. Bliss in particular.
Awesome to hear, thank you! ❤️
top!
Thanks!!
This is straight fire man!
Thank you!! 🔥 🔥
Haken has become the new Dream Theater. I'm all for it!
Haken lost flavour since Mountain, that was the top!
Amazing album! 🔥
Thank you!! 🔥
wild... wow
❤️
Instant like and follow. Amazing debut! Wish you success and prosperity, you deserve more recognition. Please, keep going 🤘
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
this is unbelieveable
Thank you!!
@@almo-music har fått lyssnad gjennom albumet typ 20 gånger... på level med persefone och ne obliviscaris... mina två elsklingar av bands... beauty and brutality... med en rød tråd gjennom hele skiten.. im sold :D
This would be a spectacular debut if it were a full band. But the fact that this is just one guy blows my mind. Did I hear some Moon Safari influence at the beginning of the final track? Congratulations - looking forward to more from you!
Thank you so much! I've never listened to them so that's just a pure coincidence if so, but sounds like I should give them a shot. :)
@@almo-music I'd definitely suggest you do, and not just because they're fellow Swedes. Like you they're also incredible musicians with wonderful harmonies.
This is really good! You're going places!
Thank you! ❤️
refreshing new tone, really nice! do you go on tour at some point?
Thank you! I'd love to play it live, but as this is just a one guy studio project right now there won't be any live for the foreseeable future, but hey who knows what will happen later on.
cool!
I love this so much between this and I am ghost it’s all I’ve been listening to! Where can I buy the cd? 💚
Thank you! There's no physical release right now, but I can say that it's on the way and should be coming pretty soon-ish! Make sure to follow me on my socials for updates on that. (links in description) :)
Awesome album i wish you every success going forward you are talented ❤
Thank you! ❤️
Awesome album ❤
Amazing album! It's a pity that there is not a physical copy.. 😐
Thank you! Hopefully in a not too far away future I'll be able to do a pressing 😉
@@almo-music Yeah! I definately want this album in my collection! You rock man!🤘
@@dimitrisnassios hey just thought I'd let you know that CDs are now available, check my bandcamp! 😊 almomusic.bandcamp.com/
@@almo-music Hey man! Just placed my order! Thanx a lot for the update! Looking forward to take this album in my hands! Cheers! ❤
@@dimitrisnassios thank you!! ❤️
Almo , omg, i had reading AMLO as the mexican president
coheed and cambria meets haken
Hang on. This is the product of (mostly) one mind??!
Yep correct! I had some help with making the drums better along with some arrangements (mainly the orchestral parts)
Чувак, если это твой первый альбом, боюсь представить, какой будет пятый. Есть это во FLAC? Хочу слушать на нормальной аппаратуре. Это офигенно
Thank you! And yes, it's available in other formats to download from my bandcamp 😊 (link is in description)
