King For A Day

Progressive rock at its best; ever changing and shifting mood all topped off with excellent production. While the instrumentation is clearly top notch it is the vocal harmonies that set MP apart.
Check out the closing section of the title track, delivered with such emotional intensity it will bring a tear to the eye. Favorite track: King For A Day.

Phenomenal prog metal, up there with the best in the genre. An overlooked gem.

Compact Disc (CD) + Digital AlbumThe Norwegian prog rock band Magic Pie are finally back with their excellent new album “King For a Day” on Karisma Records on the 25th of May.
The band was formed in 2001, and their previous three albums “Motions of Desire” (2005), “Circus Of Life” (2007) and “The Suffering” (2011) was very well received by both the press and fans. All three albums will be re-issued by Karisma Records later this autumn on both cd and vinyl (for the first time).
Magic Pie has become a household name for progfans around the world with their blend of classic prog and 70's hard rock inspired by bands such as Spocks Beard, Dream Theater, Genesis, Pink Floyd, The Flower Kings, Transatlantic, Kansas, Deep Purple, Yes etc.
Fronted by bandleader and guitar supremo Kim Stenberg, the band are known for their epic, energetic, melodic and sometimes heavy prog rock with splendid vocal harmonies and great musicianship.
Hailing from Moss, Norway, the band consists of songwriter and producer Kim Stenberg (guitars, vocals), lyricist and melody co-writer Eirikur Hauksson (lead vocals, guitar), Eirik Hanssen (vocals, guitar), Jan Torkild Johanssen (drums), Erling Henanger (keyboards, backing vocals) and Lars Petter Holstad (bass, backing vocals).

Je peux conseiller Common Ground aux amateurs de rock progressif symphonique, de préférence à ceux qui ont un goût pour les sonorités seventies (mais pas que). C’est solide, maîtrisé, inspiré. (Chroniqué sur https://alias.erdorin.org)
