viseMènn

From deep in the heart of the Norwegian wilderness, viseMènn are a brooding, atmospheric, “philosopher rock” band that specialize in an intense, ambient form of alternative music. They are comprised of guitarist Lars Olav Mangelrød, Sølve Eggebø on keyboards, drummer Mangar Lofthus, and Helge Corneliussen up front on bass and vocals. The four members of viseMènn have decades of musical experience between them, dabbling in just about every genre under the sun. They formed in the mid 2000s as an extension of Corneliussen’s improvisational project “a Crack in Time and the Break of Dawn”, where they played jam based instrumental music with a rotating cast of other musicians. It was clear that the quartet had a special chemistry and a shared ethos and aesthetic, so they agreed to form their own band.
