Cult Fiction is a Norwegian Alternative Indie Rock band,
formed in Oslo about three years ago.
Most of the Scandinavian bands I have reviewed have been
metal, so I was not surprised by the existence of darker threads in the music.
Coming through as alt instead, the songs can sound gloomy at times, especially
the first few times listening. There is still real emotion coursing through the
songs, and sometimes passion.
One of the most interesting tracks is a cover of Pink
Floyd's "Welcome to the Machine". With less effects than the
original, it also has more heart.
"Ink" is one of my favorite tracks, and has some
interesting guitar work. "Unspoken" and "Scoundrel" should
also be checked out.
While the band did not list many Seattle influences other than Hendrix, I
think fans of Soundgarden and other Chris Cornell projects will enjoy Cult
Fiction.
