Sex Magick Wizards is a Norwegian-Sámi quartet blending psychedelic rock, free improvisation and joik into hypnotic, ritualistic soundscapes. For years they have stormed Europe’s underground and experimental music scenes, earning acclaim for intense and unpredictable live performances.
The double album Suola ja Noaidi (The Thief and the Shaman) draws on themes of colonisation, weaponised religion and Sámi resilience. Working from this cultural material, Sex Magick Wizards have created a double album combining traditional joik elements with their signature experimental rock sound and freeform avant-garde improvisation. By combining fragments of Northern Sámi from the original poem with new lyrics in both English and Northern Sámi and focusing more heavily on vocals, the band creates a highly distinctive sonic language rarely heard within experimental rock. The album also contains a new interpretation of an old traditional joik from guitarist/singer/joiker Viktor Bomstad’s childhood home, Ivgorášša.
The three earlier albums released by the band "Eroto Comatose Lucidity (FBR 2019) and "Your Bliss My Joy" (Rune Grammofon, 2021) & "Death Grip" (Nice Things Records, 2024) has also attracted a lot of attention, and the band has slowly gained a reputation for its energetic, improvisatory, genre- and mind bending concerts on the european experimental rock scene.
