OAK has a modern expression that mixes rock, prog and dark pop. The band has released 3 albums, 2 of which on Karisma Records and are receiving very good reviews worldwide.MAGIC PIE has become a household name for prog fans around the world with their blend of classic prog and 70's hard rock inspired by bands such as Dream Theater, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Kansas, Deep Purple, Yes, etc. Fronted by band leader and guitar maestro Kim Stenberg, the band are known for their epic, energetic, melodic and sometimes heavy prog rock with splendid vocal harmonies and great musicianship.

Even though we are closing in on 10 years since the last BRIMSTONE release "Mannsverk", we are very pleased to have the band as part of the line up. With their unique blend og 60s and 70s inspired rock mixing in elements from both prog and psychadelic rock, the band has been a personal favourite among parts of the label staff, a somewhat dusty gem from Bergen for you to discover.
