The Profile

Älgarnas Trädgård is a Swedish progressive/psychedelic collective from Gothenburg, active in the early 1970s. Their 1972 debut became a cult favorite for its atmospheric, experimental approach. Archival recordings later appeared as Delayed.

Formed in Gothenburg, Sweden; known for the 1972 album “Framtiden är ett svävande skepp, förankrat i forntiden” (Silence Records) and the archival release “Delayed” (compiled from mid-1970s recordings).

One review highlights Älgarnas Trädgård’s misty, Nordic atmospheres and spacey, psychedelic textures. Vocals feel distant, guitars drift in long phrases, and keyboards support from the shadows. Overall sentiment is positive (4/5).

Notable Quotes

❝ The same atmosphere that is often found in the albums of Nordic authors: droplets of mist, dark and tedious atmospheres, calmness, doom, spacey and psychedelic guitar solos with long and deliberately inconclusive notes, vocals that seem to come from distant and sleepy dimensions and, underlying it all, keyboards sick with protagonism forced, instead, to play a supporting role. Here we are.
