Conundrum on CD

2020 release. Two years after the release of their highly esteemed album, Excerpts From A Future Past, Swedish adventure rock quintet Hällas sprinkle some magic dust with Conundrum, the final installment of their mysterious trilogy. Dark retro rock with a dash of mystery successfully invites it's listeners for a cosmic ride through a parallel world. Somewhere between the open spaces of hidden soundscapes and straight-up 70's rock riffs, the sonic maze of Conundrum draws you out of the everyday life. Hällas evokes a bizarre world that reveals a magnificent reincarnation of progressive art rock, psychedelic and folk in it's most authentic way. The opening track "Ascension" beguiles with rising atmospheric synth spheres and leads it's listener directly to the clutches of "Beyond Night And Day". Strong 70's rock vibes merging with psychedelic sounds simultaneously reflects the soundscape of the track and Conundrum itself.
