Orsak:Oslo Announce German Tour Dates for December

I don’t want to be Mr. Tellingtalesoutofschool, but I saw Orsak:Oslo briefly last month, I’ll happily unveil two factoids about the experience. First, they were awesome. I had to run back across the street and take pictures of the next band going on at Høstsabbat (review here), but I was sad to leave the bar they were playing as part of the fest’s local stage. Very cool stuff. Immediate vibe. Second factoid? There were four of them. I’ll admit, I don’t know much about the band — I want to and am in the process of learning more — but I recall it specifically because they were crammed onto a tiny stage and they barely fit. It was all the more a testament to their asskickery that they still locked in such a righteous vibe.

So yeah, I don’t know what the deal is lineup-wise, but if you happen to be in Germany next month, that’s where they’ll be, and posting about them again is an excuse for me to put up the stream of their 2019 for self-titled for anyone else who might just be getting caught up.

Here you go:

Scandipsych Trio ORSAK:OSLO To Tour Germany in December!

Orsak:Oslo is a dark slow brew containing of psych, dystopian post-rock and trippy space blues. With their monolithic and melancholic instrumental pieces, this is music for the active listener.

After playing November 8th in Oslo @ Vaterland, the humble Scandipsych three piece finally heads over to Germany for the following live jams:

05.12. Hamburg @ MS Stubnitz
06.12. Naumburg @ The Black House
07.12. Bielefeld @ Cutie

A trio playing just 3 dates. This is cosmic!

Orsak:Oslo is a dark slow brew containing of psych, dystopian post-rock and trippy space blues. With their monolithic and melancholic instrumental pieces, this is music for the active listener.

Orsak:Oslo is a marriage between impulsive improv and thoughtful composition, later melodies and new harmonies are carefully woven in, layer by layer. With a reverence and underlying devotion to the aura and musical preconditions laid down from the start, the result is raw, unpolished and true.

Orsak:Oslo was founded by Christian from Gothenburg, Sweden and Øyvind from Olso, Norway. On the 1st of July 2014 they released their first EP Torggata Sway, named after the street where they had shared the flat. Soon after, they got a hold on Bjarne (keys then, now guitar). The final piece fit in 2016, when Peter joined on bass.

Now, less than 5 years after Torggata Sway, Orsak:Oslo has released 9 digital EPs. 6 of these tracks have been now compiled by German label Kapitän Platte as a sort of a best of – compilation.
