A little more than a year ago I wrote about The Carnivales and their EP “Five of a Kind”. Last month they took another step on their journey by releasing their debut album “While We’re Young”.

With the album they continue with their energetic rock, but widen their scope and add more flesh to the bones. I hear classic rock from the seventies, Hellacopters and also influences from what I’d call melodic rock from the eighties. There’s a lot of ambition and desire in this band and I can really hear that in the music, fronted perfectly by Espen Janson’s vocals.
You can listen to the entire “While We’re Young” on Spotify and can read more about The Carnivales on Myspace.

Here’s the title track and it’s video from the album:
