Our Take

Norwegian instrumental rock trio Hedvig Mollestad make a triumphant return with their latest offering, "Tempest Revisited." The album, as the title suggests, is a bold reimagining of Bob Dylan's classic album "Blood on the Tracks." And let me tell you, they absolutely nailed it.

From the moment the first guitar riff kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. Mollestad's intricate guitar work is electrifying, weaving in and out of complex time signatures with ease. The rhythm section, made up of Ellen Brekken on bass and Ivar Loe Bjørnstad on drums, provides a solid foundation for Mollestad's sonic explorations.

Tracks like "Tangled up in Blue" and "Shelter from the Storm" are given a fresh new lease on life, with Mollestad's unique approach breathing new energy into these well-worn classics. The band's chemistry is undeniable, with each member playing off of each other's strengths to create a sound that is at once familiar and entirely original.

In conclusion, "Tempest Revisited" is a triumph for Hedvig Mollestad, showcasing their incredible musicianship and knack for reinterpreting classic material in a way that feels fresh and exciting. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let yourself be swept away by the tempest that is Hedvig Mollestad.
