Not Really But That's What Norwegian Band Fruitcake Called Themselves. Maybe A Bit Pompous Most Of The Lineup Came From The Wealthy West Side Of Oslo. A Couple Of Lineup Changes A Name Change The Band Finally Rested On FRUITCAKE In 1992. Everything Was Solidified And The Band Consisted Of Steffen Holthe Guitars Tore Bø Bass And Keyboards Siri M. Seland Keyboards And Bass And Pål Søvik Drums . Released By Briskeby Records In 1992 FRUITCAKE Were Off And Running With Fool's Tapes. Any Momentum However Had To Come To A Slow Crawl As Steffen Holthe Had To Fulfill Commitments In The Armed Forces. Being A True Band They Decided To Wait For Him But Worked On Obtaining A Better Record Deal Outside Of Norway. The Hard Work Paid Off As FRUITCAKE Were Signed To Cyclops Records A Premier British Progressive Label. Meanwhile Steffen's Involvement With The Band Became Increasingly Uncertain So They Began Recording The Next Album How To Make It Which Is Described As Having "delicate Songs With Extended Instrumental Parts Crossing Over Into The Pendragon And IQ/Jadis Vein And Tastes Of Anglagard And Anekdoten With Session Guitarists Robert Hauge And Jon Barstad. The Former Was Retained To Play A Few Concerts In Sweden And The Crimson Festival. The Organizers Never Paid The Band And Bassist/keyboardist Tore Bø Left Soon After To Build His Own Recording Studio And Get His Own Solo Career Off The Ground. As The Band Looked For A Replacement Excellent Reviews Worldwide Were Coming Their Way. Pressure From The Record Company For A Follow-Up Forced The Band Back In The Studio In 1995 With New Bassist Gunnar Bergersen And Guitarist Jens G. Sverdrup. One Song Was Delivered For A Cyclops Sampler With Plans To Release An Album The Following Year. However Yet Another Personnel Change As Siri Left The Band To Follow A Career Abroad. Enter Helge Skaarseth And The Band Re-Entered The Studio For Rehearsals. Room For Surprise Was Released And Is Described On Their Site As "a 'cracker'. At Last The Instrumental Virtuosity Which Is Given Full Rein At Concerts Is Allowed To Shine In The Longer Tracks Touch The Sky And A Whisper. Fluid Inventive Guitar Breaks And Wonderful Keyboard Work Over The Cooking Rhythm Section Have Produced A Wonderfully Inventive Album." The Band Continued But Broke Up In 1997. This Time With Robert Hauge From 2. Album On Guitar And His Friend Olav Nygård On Bass In Addition To Helge And Pål.The Band Started Rehersals And Played Concerts In Oslo Before Recording A New Album In The Summer. "One More Slice" Was Released On Cyclops In The Fall Of 1997 And Composing For A Fifth Album Was Commenced. The Band Has Continued On And Have Made 3 More Albums With Power Structure Nina C. Dahl Contributes Some Beautiful Flute A Battle A Day And 2004's Man Overboard. And In A Nice Twist Steffen Holthe Was Back As Guitarist For The Band After An Extended Absence. Eric Walker read less
