Groundless - 'Adrenaline'

Artist: Groundless
Title: Adrenaline

Format: Digipak CD and Digital Download
Release date: 14.08.2015
Genre: Heavy Metal
Country: Norway
BUY NOW:  Buy Digipak CD!

The new album from Groundless (Norway) is a mixture between Avenged Sevenfold, Black Veil Brides and Linkin Park!?! Is that possible? Well, probably not! 
But Groundless hits the notes of the latter bands without being copycats. In fact even though Groundless sounds perfectly familiar, their music is both original and well-defined at the same time. If you're into well-produced songs with a great melodic touch Groundless is a band you can't miss out on. Catchy, melodic, groovy and original.

You might not be on safe ground - but this time you need none - only Groundless

Killing Gandhi

Killing Gandhi was founded by Martin Arendal and Kasper Gram in 2011, after testing their musical skills with Manticora, Wuthering Heights, Evil Masquerade and Ureas for ten+ years. Their debut album Cinematic Parallels began to take shape in the spring of 2013, after joining forces with Thorbjørn Jensen (ex. Sickseed) and Rasmus Schmidt (Illdisposed, ex. Corpus Mortale). Cinematic Parallels is their version of the scandi metal sound, with inspiration from bands like In Flames, Arch Enemy, Dimmu Borgir, Soilwork among others on the Heavy Metal scene, and Medina, Robyn and Daft Punk on the more commercial scene. This gives Killing Gandhi’s sound a good mixture of short, effective and catchy songs. Cinematic Parallels is mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Amaranthe, Pretty Maids, TÝR, Evergrey a.o).

Blodsmak

Blodsmak is a Norwegian folkcore band, playing heavy rock with a generous sprinkling of Norwegian folk music.

Building on the folk metal tradition of Lumsk, Gåte, Glittertind, they are heavier and less metal, combining their thunderous grooves and insistent riffs with almost proglike elements and a melodic sensibility reminiscent of both introvert grunge and 80’s shameless stadium rock.

Their first album Av jord er me komne released in 2014, delves into themes of addiction, love lost, death, longing, and redemption. Although the subject matter is dark, the songs themselves, albeit heavy, incorporates almost popish hooks and choruses.

Check out their release Gjennom marg og bein now!

 

Members:

Tom Rikard Ostad   Vocals and Guitar
Åsgeir Størdal   Guitar and Backing Vocals
Magnus Tveiten   Guitar-god and Backing Vocals
Steinar Evant   Bass
Geir Johansen   Drums

Impalers

 

Impalers is a thrash metal band from Denmark, deeply rooted in the extremity of the German thrash scene of the ’80s. They provide powerful and aggressive music blended with melodic passages and breaks. Lyrically, the band is a statement of anti-war and anti-theism and strives to enlighten a path for a better world. In a few words, Impalers are brutality and melody incarnate. For fans of Kreator, Sodom, Sepultura, Metallica, and Testament.
