Oslo based Astrosaur is made up of Eirik Kråkenes (26, guitar), Steinar Glas (26, bass) and Jonathan Eikum (25, drums). All band members studied at the Conservatory of Music in Kristiansand, and are also involved in other projects such as Einar Stray Orchestra and Leprous to name a few. Astrosaur's sound can be described as a mixture of progressive, stoner and jazz rock.
Astrosaur says this about their instrumental trio format:
“The trio format of guitar, bass and drums facilitates a lot of musical freedom. We love filling the room with loads of amplifiers, furious effects and huge drums and just push the boundaries for what we can do with our instruments. It’s fiercely liberating. No matter how you organize your band, the singer will always be the one who gets the most attention. It never fails. The instrumentalist’s most important task is to back the singer and at no cost come in the way of the lyrics or melody. In Astrosaur, we wanted none of that. We wanted to be in a band where every member is equal and where the music can speak for itself, so we didn’t want a diva. In Astrosaur we can all be divas.”
The songs found on “Fade In // Space Out” was originally written to be performed together as a live set. The idea was to create a 60-minute sonic journey through space and time, including several different styles, moods and emotions, while still preserving the feeling of a whole throughout the concert. Many of the songs include musical hints or references to other songs on the album. Furthermore, the setlist - or rather - the tracklist, was carefully put together to facilitate a clear narrative, with ups and downs like any good story. When it was time to make a record it was only natural to take this concept further and make it fit to the album format. This is partly also why Astrosaur recorded the album live.
“Instrumental music can open up for atmospheres that might not be possible with lyrics. We want to make music that forces you to take part in an epic, cosmic journey to the stars and beyond. Music that spits you out on the other side one experience richer.” - Astrosaur

The pacing in this album is slow and methodical. Being able to sit back and mellow in the atmosphere this music creates is refreshing. And the payoff at the end... is worth the wait. sevenpointseven_fan

Carrying on from their previous record (Lore), this album pushed Elder’s sound in a big way: expect huge atmospheric production, gargantuan riffs, soaring vocal melodies & lush sonic soundscapes, all bolstered by trippy keyboard passages
It maintained their progressive approach to songwriting & refined it further. Every track takes the listener on a vivid journey through vast canvasses of dreamlike psychedelia. This is a euphoric experience unlike any other lucid_dreamscape
Throwing mathcore, emo, and ambient into the mix, Estonia's Kaschalot push progressive rock's multitasking approach to its limits. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 10, 2021

Timelessness has very little to do with relevance. Imo, albums such as this are to be enjoyed as long as there is a means for it to be played. And on that note I bid you goodnight because...death and taxes:) nakilep
