Our Take

Norwegian noise rock outfit ARABROT have unleashed their latest sonic assault in the form of "Norwegian Gothic", a cacophony of chaos and confusion that is as unsettling as it is mesmerising.

From the haunting opening track "Maldoror's Love" to the frenetic fury of "Kinks of the Heart", ARABROT take the listener on a journey through the darkest corners of their twisted minds. With jagged guitars, pounding drums, and the visceral vocals of frontman Kjetil Nernes, the band create a high-octane sonic landscape that is both exhilarating and terrifying.

On "The Horned God", ARABROT delve into darker territory, with sinister lyrics and brooding atmosphere that will leave you feeling like you've been cast into the depths of hell itself. The relentless energy of tracks like "The Carrion Crow" and "Pygmalion" will have you headbanging along in a frenzy of delight and despair.

"Norwegian Gothic" is a masterclass in the art of controlled chaos, with ARABROT proving once again that they are at the top of their game when it comes to crafting intense, unpredictable music. This is a record that demands your attention and rewards repeated listens, a twisted masterpiece that will leave you shaken to your core. 4.5/5 stars.

About the artist

Årabrot

Arabrot - the enigmatic Norwegian noise rock outfit that continues to defy musical conventions with their boundary-pushing sound. Led by the charismatic frontman Kjetil Nernes, Arabrot have been making waves in the underground music scene for over a decade, leaving a trail of destruction and mind-bending sonic experiments in their wake. With their latest release, Norwegian Gothic, Arabrot once again prove that they are not content to rest on their laurels. The album is a dark and brooding exploration of the human psyche, with Nernes' haunting vocals leading the listener on a journey through the twisted depths of his own mind. The band's signature blend of heavy riffs, dissonant melodies, and cacophonous noise is on full display here, creating a sonic landscape that is as unsettling as it is mesmerizing. Arabrot have never been a band to shy away from controversy, and Norwegian Gothic is no exception. From the politically charged lyrics to the confrontational live performances, this is a band that refuses to play it safe. But beneath the surface bravado and confrontational attitude lies a deep sense of artistry and raw emotion that sets Arabrot apart from their peers. Whether you're a longtime fan of Arabrot or a newcomer to their music, Norwegian Gothic is a powerful statement from a band that shows no signs of slowing down. With their unique blend of noise, punk, and avant-garde sensibilities, Arabrot continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in music, and we can't wait to see where they go next.
