Fatal Fusion is a Norwegian progressive rock band who is strongly influenced by 60’s and 70’s Progressive Rock, by bands like King Crimson, Camel, Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis, Rainbow, Led Zeppelin, Rush, Deep Purple, and also newer bands from the 80’s and 90’s, bands IQ, Marillion, Dream Theater, Iron Maiden to name a few. Fatal Fusion has a broad musical landscape, combining many musical styles from Jazz, Blues, Rock, Metal, Funk, Psychedelia, Ambient, Latin, Classical music into a mix. Fatal Fusion use old keyboard instruments like Hammond organs and Mellotrons to help create that old feel and sound on their second album, The Ancient Tale, released in 2013. The end result is fantasy themed prog set in a mix of symphonic 70s and neo 80s; if this is your area of interest then you are definitely missing out. Only five tracks, shortest being the softer Tears I’ve Cried at just under nine minutes with two running around the 18 minute mark. Forty years ago this band would’ve been huge; think of a more proggy early Rainbow.
