Krokofant

The summer of 2025 became a time of deep sorrow and grief, but it also sparked an intense creative outpouring for Hasslan and Mathisen. The new lineup quickly found its voice, with Mofjell delivering a powerful, dynamic style that blends the swinging intensity of Elvin Jones with the thunderous fusion power of Billy Cobham.

Rune Nergaard anchors the music with his signature heavy bass riffing. His muscular, driving style draws natural comparisons to King Crimson’s legendary bassists, particularly John Wetton’s powerful, rock-infused aggression and Tony Levin’s inventive, weighty groove and textural approach.

Unwilling to leave any of the material behind, they are releasing everything as a double album titled “7”. A raw, expansive, and deeply personal work that serves as both a tribute to Skalstad and a bold new chapter for Krokofant.
