{"product_id":"4988044056138","title":"Ant Marie Loaded Japan Music CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eProduct Description\u003cbr\u003e\nContents: Four titles released in the 70s and 80s by the Norwegian progressive\/hard rock band Ant-Marie are being reissued all at once in the world's first paper sleeve format\/newly remastered! This release is \"Loaded,\" a 1972 album that significantly strengthened the band's hard rock sound! The uniquely shaped jacket is also reproduced! Ant-Marie is a progressive\/hard rock band formed in Fredrikstad, Norway in 1969. They released three studio albums between 1970 and 1973. Although they disbanded in 1973, they have intermittently reunited and performed live ever since, becoming a representative band of 70s Norwegian\/Scandinavian progressive rock. This release is \"Loaded,\" a 1972 album, which was created after the departure of the flute\/saxophone player and a change in the keyboard player from the previous album. Perhaps influenced by the change in band members, the art-rock\/psychedelic rock elements of the previous album have been completely swept away, replaced by an aggressive and powerful hard rock\/blues-rock sound centered around organ and guitar, reminiscent of British hard rock of the same period. The Scandinavian transparency expressed through the flute in the previous album has been transformed into a folky and simple lyricism through the acoustic guitar, showcasing their unconventional musicality. With various clever touches throughout, it's a purely cool sound from beginning to end, a masterpiece that can be seen as a source of Scandinavian HR\/HM! *Features a uniquely shaped paper jacket, reproducing the poster and inner sleeve included with the original analog record, and the sticker attached to the original first pressing. Domestic pressing (2020 remaster) Paper jacket specifications that reproduce the original record in as much detail as possible (modified single jacket\/inner sleeve\/poster sticker included) Liner notes: Jun Sobuani Audio source: Universal Music Media reviews etc. Four titles released in the 70s and 80s by Norwegian progressive\/hard rock band Ant Marie are being reissued all at once in the world's first paper jacket specifications\/newly remastered! This work is \"Loaded,\" a 1972 album in which they suddenly took on a stronger hard rock sound! This album was made after the flutist\/saxophonist left and the keyboardist was replaced since the previous album. Perhaps due to the influence of these member changes, the art rock\/psychedelic rock elements of the previous album were completely wiped away, and this work is an aggressive and powerful hard rock\/blues rock album that is centered on organ\/guitar and seems to have been influenced by British hard rock of the same period. The Nordic transparency evident in their previous work, conveyed through the flute, is transformed in this album into a folky and simple lyricism through the acoustic guitar, revealing their unconventional musicality. While there are clever touches throughout, the sound is purely cool from beginning to end, making it a masterpiece that can be seen as a source of Nordic HR\/HM!
