Bjørn Berge – Who Else?

[schema type=”review” name=”Bjørn Berge – Who Else?” description=”Label: Blue Mood Records” author=”Sabine van Gameren” pubdate=”2019-02-01″ ]Bjørn Berge is a Norwegian artist that makes Rock music with Blues influences. His previous album released in 2013 and this year he return with a brand new album. It is called “Who Else?” and it is available now.

This album is the first time he did not work alone. Although sometimes it appears minimalistic, the whole has a complete sound. Where you could easily feel it being to calm the warmth that lays into the atmosphere of the music is making it easy to keep on board. Some influences of different genres give some shape to the vocals of Bjørn, the black feel is thickened. “Mr Bones”, for example, can truly bring a smile to your face for it being an entertaining track.
Then you run into a ballad. “Bitter Sweet” is a track that changes the vibe. Remarkable and full of feeling it is one track that stands out on the release. And switching it of with some more tempo on “Speed of Light” brings you some contrast, a surprise that bends it all again.

Eventually the album closes with the more energetic “The Sun’s Going Down” in which you grasp the essence of it all. A summarize that concludes the who album and gives you the image of who Bjørn is: “Who Else?”.
