Ex-Kvelertak frontman Erlend Hjelvik has signed a deal with Nuclear Blast Records for his latest outfit, Hjelvik. Described as a ‘blackened Viking heavy metal solo-band’, Hjelvik‘s debut album, “Welcome To Hel“, is slated to arrive via the label later in the year. Speaking of the signing, Erlend himself commented:
“Signing with Nuclear Blast is a dream come true for me. Since I was a teenager, I’ve been a fan of classic NB bands like Immortal, Dimmu Borgir, In Flames and so on — so that makes me feel extra proud to call Nuclear Blast my new label home. I’m certain Nuclear Blast will do an awesome job bringing Hjelvik metal to the masses on my new album, ‘Welcome To Hel‘, and many more to come.”
