Australia. Botswana. Norway. HUSK does not call one place home, but formed in Oslo in 2013. Two expatriates, Michael Jozefowicz (vocals) and Rob Hamilton (guitar/vocals) bonded over a mutual obsession for engaging music and recruited Oslo locals, Daniel Flygh (bass) of ANEURISM and Lage Jensen (drums) of BLODSPOR. Their sound is kinetic, spitting conviction with lyrical themes covering society, politics, religion and the endeavour for self-betterment. Pounding together elements of metal, hardcore, punk and sludge, this 4-piece don’t mess around.
With the threat of deportation looming, the HYMNS EP was recorded in 3 chaotic days at Caliban Studios by KVELERTAK guitarist, Bjarte Lund Rolland. Mixing was completed on the touring road and mastering was handled by Alan Douches at West West Side Music with artwork by Simón Prades.
The HYMNS EP will be released for download in early 2014 and later on 10” vinyl, but for now a teaser track is available at:
