Vokonis fourth studio album Odyssey is here. More dynamically diverse than ever, the 6 new tracks feature guest musician Per Wiberg (Opeth, Spiritual Beggars, Kamchatka) on Keyboard. Odyssey is Vokonis\x27 first true prog\-record. A record for the new decade. After the success of Vokonis\x27 critically acclaimed third album Grasping Time (2019), Vokonis immediately went into recording more material. With the goal set to further expand the prog landscape, Vokonis crafted recordings that are more dynamically diverse and forward\-thinking than ever before. The result is Odyssey, the upcoming fourth studio album by Vokonis. Ranging from full\-blown doom to melodically blissful passages, the new album features guest musician Per Wiberg (Opeth, Spiritual Beggars, Kamchatka) on Keyboard. With tangible prog\- influences combined with stand out choruses, the 6 tracks on Odyssey further explores the sound that Vokonis introduced on 2019\x27s Grasping Time. Jonte\x27s clean vocal lines are effectively blended with Simon\x27s aggressive bark, creating tons of depth as the sound shift from dreamy psychedelia to faze\-melting sludge heaviness. The new tracks are backed up by the rhythmical patterns provided by the band\x27s new drummer Peter Ottosson who, since his affiliation in early 2019, has proved to be a spark plug of inspiration for the band. Odyssey was recorded in Studio Soundport, Sweden, by Mikael Andersson. Mastered by Magnus Lindberg. The artwork for the album and its singles were made by Kyrre Bjurling (Grasping Time, Olde One Ascending Reissue).
