NEWS: Linus Klausenitzer offers a soul to sell?

Following the arrival of “King Of Hearts“, renowned former Obscura six string fretless bassist Linus Klausenitzer has plucked “Our Souls Set Sail” from his forthcoming, debut solo album, “Tulpa” to tickle your cerebral cortex. The record is out on 6th October via AOP Records and features a myriad of incredible guests and while he’s known for playing complex music, he aimed to make this album a collection of accessible and approachable songs featuring a blend of technical playing and catchy hooks.

Linus Klausenitzer comments: “This song is about a ‘Blue Ghost,’ one of ten characters from the story of my upcoming album ‘Tulpa.’ It’s one of the most powerful creatures so people treat it like a clairvoyant and search for answers. They worship the ‘Blue Ghost’ as a godly entity holding profound wisdom. In the music video I feature a brand new bass with a steel fretboard – it’s the first time Ibanez has build a bass like this!”
