2016 German Shodoks label 2LP reissue of psychedelic/progressive Danish rock trios 3rd album - combining the 1972 Danish release with the 1974 English language export version - which is rumoured to be manufactured limited to only 1000 copies.
Alrune Rock "shows the group moving away from the violent and emotional drama as the main expression and now seek strength through a technically more competent music. This album reached number 3 on the 'Top 10' charts of the Danish radio."
"This 3rd album came in in 2 different version, in 1972 with Danish vocals and for Export, in 1974, the very rare English vocals version with slightly different mixes too...The music is so exciting and varied that it must belong among Danish rock classics... It is at once both melodic and full of improvisations, whether it be in English or Danish... This album belongs to the top of the Danish underground scene among Young Flowers, Culpeper's Orchard, Burnin Red Ivanhoe, Pan, Hurdy Gurdy, The Old Man & The Sea, just to name a few. Their musical style is often described as a hybrid between The Grateful and early Pink Floyd."
""Alrune Rock" includes a very rare poster, new liner notes and many unseen pictures from the period 1972/74." Shadoks Music, 2016
Vinyls are manyfactured as high quality 180 g pressings - accompanied by reproduction of rare fold out poster and a 2-page insert with in depth liner notes and many rare period photos. Vinyls are housed in printed inner sleeves - essentially thinner paper - inner sleeve - reproductions of the respective albums original artwork.
Everything is housed in a superb handmade, heavy duty gatefold picture cover which is an exact reproduction of the British 3rd album version ? essentially the cover image of Alrune Rods first album from 1969 but with heavy color changes - and a sticker on the front to prevent misunderstanding the one for the other. The Shadoks reissue is manufactured limited to 600 copies, handnumbered in the cover itself.
