Description

SVANFRIDUR - What's Hidden There- The Icelandic prog-rock band Svanfridur released only one album, recorded six months after they played their first gig. This short-lived band rapidly rose to fame, receiving rave reviews for live performances, but in fact their music was way ahead of its time. They were unable to seal a recording contract so they formed their own label - Swan Records.

When the album ‘What’s Hidden There?’ was released in autumn 1972 it got mixed reviews and sold only a few hundred copies, leaving the band with a great album but sadly not the income they had been hoping for.
Recorded at London’s Majestic Studios the album was cut and pressed in England.

This is with no doubt one of the best heavy prog / underground albums from Scandinavia with amazing guitar & all English vocals.

Would have been a famous and successful album on Decca UK!
