Arkham 500 - All My Greetings
The album All My Greetings are a set of songs originally intended for Arkham 500, also released by Kjetel as a solo artist. Released on Indie label Idland Music by Kjetel A Idland from Sandnes county of Rogaland, oil capitol of Norway.
The song All My Greetings came together In the writing process during the Korona epidemic. Writing It when watching the history of country & western music, when I learned about the little ghost haunting the Grand Old Opry In Nashville. Abstract but then again not It`s a bit different from the other songs on the record. It also got a lot of great reviews, like the one from Dream Police. It says:
"The entire instrumental is a masterpiece, with unexpected twists and turns that never let up on the momentum. I am feeling the momentum and enjoying the mood. The vocals are also enjoyable. "
For this recording I build my own studio, all recording & writing I did on my own. As said It came together through the korona epidemic. Consist of songs which all has received great reviews. Rock/metal music & storytelling at Its best.
This is a re-release of the 2012 recording of Palms to heaven. Recorded in a weeks time In Frog Leap studio. Released on Indie label Idland Music by Kjetel Idland from Sandnes county of Rogaland, oil capitol of Norway.
As remembered the songs all written In early 2010`s. Reflecting over my passed crazy lifestyle, also mentioned in the thrash-blog section. It`s kind off telling young ones to not turn into heavy drugs. You either end up dead before you thrash up everything in your path, or have to be saved in some kind of way. Lyrics, always a bit abstract & how to leave behind your “drug personality” .
Specially remembering playing Love Lays dying the first time In rehearsal. Everyone stopped what they where doing & joining in. Knowing it was something special about it. First release with the acoustic mistake, shouldn’t have been on the record. The 1 printed release with it on it. So everyone who got their copy have the very limited edition with also miss spelling on Love Lays dying. Now it`s how it intended to be.
Idland also been playing as a solo act until bringing Arkham 500 to life again. The music been compared both to Metallica, Nirvana & Stone Temple Pilots. It got Its roots from that 90`s rock metal vibe. Played at the Whiskey a go go In Los Angeles summer of 25. A fantastic memorable experience.

The entire instrumental is a masterpiece, with unexpected twists and turns that never let up on the momentum. I am feeling the momentum and enjoying the mood. The vocals are also enjoyable. Good luck with whatever comes next.
“Dream Police”
“A true blend of metal, rock and pop. Great instrumentation that builds throughout and show's you mean business. Raspy lead vocal sung with passion, giving texture and tone. “
