“I guess our nod to the ’90s can’t be more obvious than in this video. “A music journalist once wrote that we ‘sounded like an obscure ’90s band,'” Samdal says. The band recently released their video for “Unstoppable.” Eight songs made the cut and we love them.” “It was produced and mixed by out very talented friend Marius Ergo, and mastered by hardcore legend Will Killingsworth (Orchid). As soon as they gave allowance, we went in the studio, trying to finish before they shut down again! We felt like a guerrilla or something, waiting for the government’s go. “We live in another city, and Oslo was shifting on being locked down and open, and if we we’re allowed to travel domestic at all. “I guess we were the only ones using jaguars and tube screamers… “The album was recorded during the pandemic downtown Oslo, in a building with tons of studios, so you could hear hip hop and EDM-beats pounding through the walls, recalls drummer Samdal. Onsloow was produced by Marius Ergo (Lukestar, Truls and The Trees, Insomniac Bears), and the album is proceeded by the album’s first single, “Overthinking,” which was launched to rave reviews in the British music press, a second single, “A Good Day to Forget,” which is currently on heavy rotation with NRK-P13, Norway’s BBC 6 equivalent. It’s no surprise then that among their fans it’s easy to find aging parents of young children who long for the sweet nostalgia of their glory days as well as young hipsters who have embraced the aesthetics and charm of melodic guitars and catchy singalongs that wouldn’t have been out of place in the ’90s.
The sweet, feminine energy of Johanne Rimul’s charming vocal work mixes confidently with the confident and ferocious playing of guitarists Mathias Nylenna, bassist Lasse Berg and drummer Morten Samdal, and finds the band in league with contemporaries like The Beths, Tigers Jaw, Girl In Red and Paramore, and even Superchunk, Weezer and The Get Up Kids. The Trondheim, Norway’s band is a fresh, well-crafted indie rock band that creates rousing and dreamy power pop sounds with nuances and nods to pop punk.
