Tusmorke, arguably the most atavistically trollish, acid-drenched musical act ever to come out of the kingdom of Norway makes yet another eternal return, this time to take the fellow traveller on a subterranean expedition to the kingdom of the Fair Folk! Dawn of Oberon is the band's 12th album, released 12 years after their debut "Underjordisk Tusmorke" (2012).

12-12-12 - That makes this album twice as occult as 666. The band says: "This record is a testament of a tumultuous time.

We had a new drummer, Kusken, and keyboard player, Herjekongen, in 2022 and immediately started working on the epic Dawn of Oberon.

This behemoth had been wallowing about since the start of the millenium, never quite finding its shape and form.

We thought of this as a trial by fire to galvanize the new members. During jams at rehearsals and concerts, new themes emerged, resulting in a sort of sequel in the form of Dusk of Tawblerawn part 1-5.

Kusken decided to quit after just 8 months but agreed to document the time we had spent together.

All the music was recorded in our rehearsal space and studio in 2022-2023. The record is a manifestation of our Peter Pan syndrome; our aesthetics and ideals remain unchanged for the last 25 years.

Never grow up, just grow old. This time we go away with the fairies all together, to the far-away land of the far-out mind.
