‘’Ultralyd is Kjetil Møster (The Core) on sax, Anders Hana (MoHa!) on guitar, Kjetil D. Brandsdal (Noxagt) on bass and Morten J. Olsen (MoHa!) on drums and vibraphone. This is their third album since the band was formed by legendary sax player Frode Gjerstad in 2004. Gjerstad left after their second album ”Chromosome Gun” (Load Records) to be replaced by Møster. During two extensive European tours and several studio sessions Ultralyd’s direction has slowly changed from a rather chaotic free rock approach towards composition and more structured forms of improvisation, experimenting with different layers and altered roles of the instruments, integrating elements from contemporary and electronic music, funk and doom metal and ending up with an album that might be classified as something akin to the improvised chamber rock King Crimson were doing around 1973.’‘

Taken from the Rune Grammofon site, for the upcoming ‘Conditions For A Piece of Music’.

Ultralyd have released four records in total.

“Ultralyd”, was released on FMR in 2004.
“Chromosome Gun” came out on Load Records in 2005.
A 200 ex CDR “Throb and Provision” was released on Utech Records in 2006,
Ultralyd/Noxagt split LP also came out in 2006 on Textile Records

    Conditions For A Piece of Music is very background music tier, it'd fit great in a dark movie. Overall it was a good album. Good free jazz/experimental band.
