about
In today's society the old folk tales can be thought to belong to the delusions of the past. With their enchanting riffs and beautiful harmonies Lykantropi take us via the werewolf transformation back to the rock and folk music of the early 70s. Sweet harmonies reminiscent of The Mamas & The Papas are layered with electric guitars and flutes into a witch's brew. Lykantropi was created in 2013 by Martin Östlund. The critically acclaimed and self-titled debut album, which contains the single Black Old Stone was released in 2017 via Lightning Records. It has been praised by Sweden Rock Magazine and Aftonbladet (a daily newspaper) to name just two. In a world that can feel very far away from a cinematic American west coast with its playfulness and total enthusiasm, Lykantropi is an oasis in the desert. Here the mystic of the forests meets the dusty vistas of the steppes, and occultism surrounds us with a purple smoke that takes us from east to west enveloped in Scandinavian melancholy.
