The record will be the first from KVELERTAK since 2016’s ‘Nattesferd‘ and is their first album featuring new singer, Ivar Nikolaisen, who joined the group in 2018.
The band has just shared brand new song ‘Bråtebrann‘.
The album was recorded with Kurt Ballou (Converge, Code Orange, Zeal & Ardor, Every Time I Die, Dillinger Escape Plan, High On Fire) at Godcity Studio in Salem, Massachusetts.
“Working with Kurt again has been amazing and we’re extremely happy with the production,” the band continues. “We’ve pushed ourselves to the edge this last year – musically, physically, and mentally. The result is one hour of catchy riffs, punk rock, and heavy metal influenced by a world in discord to accompany our way towards Ragnarok.”
In March 2020, KVELERTAK will return to the UK for headline shows in Manchester, Bristol, and London, bringing with them special guests Planet Of Zeus and Blood Command. Tickets are on sale now from all good box offices and from www.kvelertak.com. Full list of dates can be found below;
Known for previous albums being entirely in Norwegian, ‘Splid’ includes a couple of tracks in English, including the song ‘Crack of Doom’ which features guest musician Troy Sanders of Mastodon.
