Portland, Oregon doom/sludge titans
NORSKA — who feature in their ranks members of
YOB — are set to unleash their debut release on September 18 via
Brutal Panda Records. The five-song, 40-minute eponymous debut was recorded by
Adam Bradley Pike (
BLACK ELK,
RED FANG) at
Toadhouse Studios in the band’s hometown. Mixing heavy, meditative riffs and a thundering rhythm section with psychedelic flourishes,
NORSKA prove they are true masters of their craft.
In other news,
NORSKA has lined up a September tour with the mighty
YOB, with whom they share bassist
Aaron Rieseberg.
