Logic Bomb - The Grid

Time to be a bit patriotic ;) Logic Bomb consists of two Swedish guys - Jonas Pettersson och Johan Krafft, both from the town of Örebro ( home of many really good psytrance-musicians). And when it comes to making high quality full-on with a psychedelic twist, Logic Bomb really knows how to pull their act together! Their new album, The Grid, which was released about a month ago is not an exception.


Logic Bomb, was formed in 1998, and two years later, they released their highly thought debut album 'Headware', produced together with fellow Swede, Jonas Bergvall, on legendary Swedish label Spiral Trax. Following up on the phenomenal success of 'Headware', their second album 'Unlimited' was released on leading English label TIP World in 2002. After years of silence, in 2007 the Logic Bombs finally released their 3rd and highly acclaimed album, Sonic Algebra released on the label Solstice Music. Mixing really powerful melodies with soul, and high-tech, weird psy-sounds, Logic Bomb is one of the few groups today, that has created their own high-quality sound and has managed to stick to it, thus you can often hear if it´s one of their songs playing. This is also obvious when listening to their new album released on TIP records.

Although this album is a good album all-through, with all the songs being really well-produced and also capable of telling their own little personal stories to the listener, as always there are a few songs that you for some reason speaks to you more and that you end up playing on repeat.

3. Bitter Hitter - initially focusing on metallic sounds jumping around and then presenting more melodic elements with really powerful patterns of tones, but still sticking to a psy-groove

4. Sinister Science - some really great full-on with beautifully flowing melodies, in nice symbiosis with quirky psychedelic patterns and sounds; and with an ending spreading warm energies and a smell of green grass and naked feet dancing away

7. 4th Dimension - built upon a steady structure of a pumping psychedelic groove with a hint of funkiness, continuing with a really emotional melody, and finishing off with putting it all together and twisting it to its fullest. Good shit!

8. Knorrar - with an element of the oldschool-goa sound and also reminding me a bit of older Logic Bomb songs in structure, melodies and quirky sounds this song is just as the title says (in Swedish) knorrig :)
