Kvelertak is a brutally catchy punkrock/metal band with a taste of groovy darkness! Unlike the majority of heavier bands they sing in their native language – adding even more character to their already unique sound.
Releasing their much anticipated debut album, Kvelertak are already well known in Norway for their furious live energy and catchy, melodic, metal-inspired punk rock. Outside Norway they are fairly unknown… yet.
The artwork for the new album is done by John Baizley of Baroness, he heard a demo while on tour and felt he absolutely had to do the art, which Kvelertak absolutely agreed on.
This summer Kvelertak heads out on a massive European tour with Converge and Kylesa, marking the first European tour for the band. And in a tomorrow they will play at Slussen here in Stockholm, go an watch them!
