Beardfish – Note

Biography
Gävle, Sweden (2001 – present)
In 2001, Rikard Sjöblom and David Zackrisson founded Beardfish together with Petter Diamant on drums and Gabriel Olsson on bass. Drummer Petter Diamant subsequently left the band, and was replaced by Magnus Östgren in 2002; flautist and keyboardist Stefan Aronsson also joined.
Robert Hansen replaced Gabriel on bass, and Beardfish recorded their debut album Från En Plats Du Ej Kan Se in Stefan’s studio in 2003. Stefan left the band shortly thereafter. Despite “Från en plats…” being released and passing by quite unnoticed, Beardfish continued to tour as a four-piece band, with Rikard replacing Stefan’s role as keyboardist. The end of 2003 was a very productive period for the band, and saw several demos being recorded.
The year of 2004 was largely uneventful for Beardfish, although they did start recording a second album. After that, however, it took the band nearly a year to begin recording once again.
Come 2005, the band was to be found secluded in a cottage outside the town of Gävle, Sweden preparing to record the rest of the material for their upcoming album.
Björn Arnell, a friend of the band, lent them recording equipment, an arsenal of keyboards and effect pedals, and helped them set things up in an old and stately dining room near town.

I totally fall for this Hammond sound ! (even if I'm assuming it's a Clavia Nord C1)

http://lamuzi.blogspot.be/2012/09/recenzje-nowosci-beardfish-void.html POLISH REVIEW Jeżeli o czysto artystyczne dokonania zespołu Beardfish, Szwedzi z czystym sumieniem mogliby śmiało osiąść na laurach i nagrywać tzw. „bezpieczne” płyty. Tymczasem "The Void" to nowa jakość w dorobku grupy. Zresztą przeczytajcie sami czym zaskakują nas tym razem!

Disappointed with it first listen, second much better [2]. Maybe because of the much heavier sound they introduced in the first couple of tracks.
