Annbj\u00f8rg Lien\u00b4s \u201cAliens Alive\u201d is more than just a live recording.<\/p>\n
What better way for Annbj\u00f8rg Lien to celebrate her three latest releases, than giving us the best parts live! And rather than just repeating the albums, its a creative and colourful exploration of themes and textures. From the contemplative beginning like a clear mountain spring, through rapids and cascades, the album feels like a Norwegian river, a beautifull tapestry of melodic and rhytmic cross currents. The band creates potent and poignant images. Its a marvellous flow of spirit, sound and harmonies.<\/p>\n
Its another of those steps into musical wonders which Annbj\u00f8rg and her companions do so well. There are moments of aural revelations when keyed and Hardanger fiddles interplay with guitar, flute, percussion and keyboards. Its again a moving beyond boundaries and barriers, a mystical blend of past and present. Its a visionary voyage from the atmospheric voice of the Space Age to the voice of the Sami Aboriginals.<\/p>\n

Mellow and monumental, the album evokes a futuristic nostalgia. Annbj\u00f8rg once again shows the relevance of roots and real traditions, magically bridging the past and the future. Profound and simple, it captures your senses. Its music speaking to the heart and the mind. It enters your deepest emotions, makes you smile, listen and even sometimes think.<\/p>\n
Its more than a live recording, its alive.<\/p>\n
