"One of the greatest bands in the world" New York Times
The Necks conjure a chemistry together that defies description and the deceptive simplicity of their music throws forth new charms on each listen. Together for nearly thirty years, their concerts are mesmerising occasions of collective spontaneous music making that bring to mind all kinds of avant-garde, minimalist, ambient and jazz praxis while creating something that is uniquely their own.
"...Entirely new and entirely now...They produce a post-jazz, post-rock, post-everything sonic experience that has few parallels or rivals. They may teach us to listen in a new way, but they communicate a fierce energy and warmth at the same time. Their music is a thrilling, emotional journey into the unknown. Like seeing a world in a grain of sand, The Necks permit us to hear a whole new world of music in a sliver of sound" The Guardian (UK)

Fylkingen är en svensk förening för experimentell musik och konst i huvudsak bestående av utövande konstnärer. Grundad år 1933 och är en av världens äldsta i sitt slag. Fylkingen startade som en kammarmusikförening men har under åren utvecklat sin verksamhet mot nya experimentella och oetablerade former av samtida konst och musik.
