HALLAS - Isle Of Wisdom (CD)

2022 release. Traversing through an evocative, feel-good blend of nostalgic 70Æs hard rock, proto-metal, folk and psychedelic influences - Isle Of Wisdom emerges as the third studio album by breakout Swedish rockers Hõllas. Formed in 2011 and named after the main character featured in the stories of their lyrics - a knight in a parallel medieval universe destined to take part in a religious war caused by a tyrannical queen - Hõllas are the originators of the Adventure Rock genre, devoting themselves to the aforementioned sonic fusion and eccentric imagery inspired by rock greats of yore with a fantastical twist. Comprised of eight bold opuses, Isle Of Wisdom is a deft new step in the noteworthy sonic trajectory of Hõllas, cementing them as a band to watch!
