Kvelertak - 1985

The Norwegian sextet KVELERTAK is back with a new tune "1985" taken from the upcoming album "Nattesferd", out 5/13.

KVELERTAK music is rooted d-beat and black metal, with alot of punkish attitude, but with the new tune "1985" it draws more from the classic old school hard rock like THIN LIZZY and AC/DC than DISCHARGE or DARKTHRONE. Sounds interesting, looking forward to hear the new album.

Today's tune "1985", taken from the album, Nattesferd - available for pre-order April 8 on Roadrunner Records.

According to a statement from the band, the song’s title refers to a setting much more ominous than the tone implied in the music:

Think of George Orwell’s 1984 instead of Taylor Swift’s 1989. Its lyrics depict a cold and (not so) distant future where technology and surveillance have erased all forms of individuality and critical thinking. Needless to say, everything was better before — can somebody hit the rewind button already?

This coming April the band will embark on a month long tour together with TORCHE, MUTOID MAN and WILD THRONE.

Wild Throne - Harvest Of Darkness

From Bellingham, Washington comes the space out rock act WILD THRONE. This is a new interesting find where we get rhythms that's are far out spastic and the boundaries are pushed to it's Max.

WILD THRONE consists of Josh Holland (guitar/vocals), Noah Burns (drums) and Jeff Johnson (bass). The band’s sound is a dynamic mix of elements of JUDAS PRIEST, MASTODON, QUEEN, THE MARS VOLTA, classic metal, thrash and progressive rock, creating music that Pitchfork once described as “exhilarating, fun ferocious” and “proof that ambition and skill don’t automatically cancel out heart.”

The volume and brutality of heavy metal, compositional elements of prog rock, atypical time signatures of math rock, along with things not normally found in those genres such as strong melodies, a touch of psychedelia and some old-fashioned, straight-ahead rock ’n’ roll, along with impeccable musicianship, and meld them into a big, multi-layered, many-faceted sound that is completely their own

Today's tune is the title track taken from the album "Harvest Of Darkness" - available 10/2/15 on Roadrunner Records!
