Kvelertak have found a new label home with Rise Records and are preparing to release their new album “Splid” on February 14th. The group recorded the outing at GodCity Studio with Converge‘s Kurt Ballou behind the boards. Ahead of the album’s release, they have shared the below stream of their new song “Bråtebrann“. You can pre-order the album itself here.
Speaking of their signing, the group stated:
“We are very excited that our new album Splid will be released through Rise Records and we look forward to being a part of the Rise family in the coming years. ‘Splid‘ (“discord” in English) is a deep dive into western gluttony, our own stupidity, and the abyss of the earth.”
Regarding the recording process for the album, the band had the following to offer:
“Working with Kurt again has been amazing and we’re extremely happy with the production. 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.”
