about

Invited some zombies to my soirée,
Though I despise them, what can I say?
They groaned and they moaned, oh so hearty,
Welcome, undead, to the grudge party!

Rolf Zero returns with a vengeance on "Grudge Party," an electrifying departure from the cosmic whispers of "Paxillus." This instrumental progressive rock odyssey ditches the space-age shimmer for a vibrant explosion of organ and synth, capturing the raw energy of a live studio jam.

Don't be fooled by the title - "Grudge Party" is a joyful riot of sonic hues. The album dances through a kaleidoscope of moods, from the melancholic reverie of "Sunrise at Sandy Cape" to the claustrophobic groove of "A Nut for a Jar of Tuna." Rolf Zero even takes a detour to sunny Brazil with the breezy bossa nova of "Tele Santana" and the fiery flamenco rhythms of "A Flamenco for Finns."

There's something for everyone here. Retro synth fiends will swoon over the 80s PFM vibes of "Dopey Days," while hard rock fans will dig the Celtic-infused riffage of "Pulpo a la Gallega." And of course, no Rolf Zero album is complete without a nod to their signature style, "The Witch" weaves a mystical spell, proving the band's atmospheric prog.

"Grudge Party" is a joyous celebration of musical exploration, a psychedelic party where genres melt and moods shift like desert mirages. Buckle up, crank it up, and let Rolf Zero guide you on an unforgettable journey through their wildest musical dreamscape.
