I have a hard time resisting the urge to call Pajjama an epic Norwegian prog rock outfit. Really though, their sound is more nuanced than that description might imply. There is a heavy synthesizer presence, for one, and a certain winking cheesiness that recalls a darker Yellow Magic Orchestra or some forgotten funky library record. Also -- the composition skills. They are at the forefront for much of Starch, which makes the album's 13 minute runtime go by in a flash. But don't be fooled, some band's work their whole careers to stumble on this many exciting sounds, ideas, and irresistible melodies. Just listen and you'll probably be hooked.
