Various Artists: I Never Meta Guitar

Read "I Never Meta Guitar" reviewed by Mark Corroto

There are no fans of the guitar in today's creative music--they are better described as fanatics, or devotees. But then the guitar has always caused listeners to choose sides. I'm a fan of Jimmy Page and you, Pete Townshend--or do you prefer Wes Montgomery to my Jim Hall. John McLaughlin or Pete Cosey? Some of these ...

Scorch Trio: Brolt

by John Kelman
June 4, 2008

First impressions may be lasting, but they're sometimes not as all-encompassing as they should be. Scorch Trio--the Norwegian/Finnish power trio featuring guitarist Raoul Bjorkenheim, bassist Ingebrigt Haker Flaten and drummer Paal Nilssen-Love--may appear to be a pedal-to-the-metal improvising power trio, a sense supported by Luggumt (Rune Grammofon, 2004). Still, over the course of three albums culminating ...

Scorch Trio: Luggumt

by Ty Cumbie
January 12, 2005

The opening notes of Luggumt have justifiably provoked comparisons with Jimi Hendrix. Guitarist Raoul Björkenheim gives an emphatic nod to the psychedelic rock god, then takes the electric guitar to places even he might never have reached had he lived as long. Luggumt , the second recording from this Finno-Norwegian trio, begins with ...

by John Kelman
November 19, 2004

One listen to “Kjale Hole" on Scorch Trio's sophomore effort, Luggumt , and you quickly realize that this may be one of the most aptly-named groups on the scene today. Blistering in its intensity, the trio combines the searing energy of a rock power trio with the broadest freedom and exploration that jazz has to offer. ...

Bj: Scorch Trio

by Mark Corroto
May 1, 2002

What immediately hits you about the music of the Scorch Trio is their raw intensity and singularity of purpose. Guitarist Raoul Björkenheim, born in Los Angeles, has spent most of his musical career in Finland. He has recorded with Edvard Vesala, Bill Laswell, Nicky Skopelitis, and his own band Krakatau. He brings a passion for Jimi ...
