Phish's 2018 Halloween album, "Kasvot Växt: í rokk," was a playful, if sometimes bewildering, dive into a fictional Finnish prog-rock band, complete with elaborate costumes and a fully realized backstory. The album captures the band's Halloween tradition of releasing a "musical costume" — another band's album played note-for-note, or in this case, a fully original work presented as such.
- The album was recorded during Phish's 2018 Halloween shows at MGM Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
- The concept was that "Kasvot Växt" was a Swedish band from the 1980s whose music Phish discovered and decided to perform.
- The release also included a fictional backstory and liner notes, adding to the elaborate hoax.
Phish is a rock band from Vermont, known for their improvisational live shows and dedicated fanbase. "Kasvot Växt: í rokk" was released late in their career, following a hiatus and reunion.
