Album Review: KVELERTAK Meir

You'd be hard pressed to find a metal band more hyped than Kvelertak in the last two years. Having released their self-titled debut in 2010 through Indie Recordings, it wasn't until that album was released in the US in March 2011 that shit really started getting nuts. Following a number of high profile gigs during SXSW that year and a subsequent full scale tour, Kvelertak fever had taken hold in America. The band's live reputation became so formidable that it almost seemed like an afterthought when a follow up record was finally announced late last year. (more…)

Here's Another New KVELERTAK Song

Kvelertak's new album, Mier will be released in three weeks on March 26th which means the promo train is about to speed up.

Case in point, the band just premiered a new track, "Spring Fra Livet" over at NPR. This is one of my favorite tracks off the new album, which I had a bit of time with lately.

Ultimately, I cannot wait to see the band perform these and their older tracks live, because that's the proper space to fully appreciate the band. Get tour dates here.

KVELERTAK Promise That Just Because They Signed To Roadrunner, They Will Not Turn Into NICKELBACK

Kvelertak's upcoming album, Mier, is going to be a really fun record. I got an advance of it, and let me tell you, it's non-stop headbanging.

For a while, Kvelertak were one of the hottest free agents in the metal world, and then surprisingly, they announced they'd be signing to Roadrunner. Apparently, this got a bit of negative feedback from fans, fearing that with label pressure, the band would turn into Nickelback, Roadrunner's most successful signing. But, Kvelertak is here to tell you that is hogwash. (more…)
