Lizardking #2

Take a trip back in time, and listen to some of the work of Gustaf Grefberg (Lizardking).

I went through some of my old data on my storage unit this morning, and I found some of my old downloads. Some of the songs are dated 1994-1995 but I cannot verify all of them.

I think that Gustaf Grefberg went through a “phase” at the time, hence the “World of …” naming.

I especially like the “World of Unicorns” song. It’s not everyday, a song this is so emotional from the “King of Doskpop”.

Most of the songs I’ve got from The Mod Archive and they are in the XM file format, which is from the Fasttracker 2. I have enclosed some songs of Lizardking, from sources in MOD, S3M and XM format.

The song ‘Claustrophobia’ is super cool and characterize the ‘Doskpop’ style, as he called it. The ‘Doskpop intro’ are a slow version of Claustrophobia, but in only 4 channels (MOD).
