‘Forsvinne (edit)’ by Bendik

I don’t know much about this Norwegian trio other than they’re on Trondheim-based label Riot Factory and share a similar affinity for chugging, downcast goth rock as fellow gloom ravens 2:54. Though it may be down to their fundamentally bone-chilled, Nordic DNA that makes the distortion crunch just that much harsher, and the moonward howls just that much colder. The backdrop of synthesised swirl and buzz is gloriously Carpenter too.
