(From last.fm) Älgarnas Trädgård (Garden of the Elks) was a Swedish psychedelic progressive-rock band who recorded just two albums, Framtiden är ett svävande skepp, förankrat i forntiden (“The Future is a Floating Ship Anchored in Antiquity”) and Delayed.These two albums I found to both be absolute gems, intensely psychedelic concoctions that would definitely would be filed as early krautrock if it were not from Sweden.
They feature very early elements of sampling and electronica, and have elements of folk and early progressive rock. They also contain a delightfully mythical vibe, suggesting the band were fascinated with ancient folklore and mythology. If any of the above sounds appealing to you then you are sure to enjoy these.
