Black vinyl with printed innersleeve

Norwegian outlaw country?, I hear you ask, just when you thought you’d heard it all! With all the stylistic influences of old American blues but filtered through the genes of old Norse berserkers, consider us interested. Eight years after their debut album, Deathbarrel returned with Rebuke Revoke. The album opens in true country style with a gentle picking banjo intro guiding you into the addition of percussion and voice. Vocalist Mr Strangeland is the perfect fit for this self-announced outlaw country genre, his voice is rich and strong, coarse yet smooth when it needs to be. The brass really fills out this track and comes in occasionally to add a little more depth and complexity with an ominous, brooding sound. The music is raw, uncut and masculine. Deathbarrel is the music of men who like to fish and hunt. Deathbarrel is the sound of wrenches and motor oil. Deathbarrel is The Truth. If you’ve played traditional blues to death then this could be a refreshing twist on the genre. This EP is promising to say the least, so if you’re a fan of country with a difference, then Deathbarrel is for you
