Suncraft is an underground rock band from Oslo, Norway. After appearing on the scene with their debut Flat Earth Rider in 2021, they’ve ratcheted up their sound a notch in every conceivable way with their sophomore outing Welcome To The Coven. This time around, the band is serving a fast-paced genre party of an album, bursting at the seams with heavyness and playful creativity. Scandirock, punk, post rock, metal and stoner influences are all combined into a unique blend of high energy, fuzzed out riffery, with production by the eminent Norwegian rock producer, Ruben Willem (Kvelertak, The Good The Bad and The Zugly). 

Formed in Oslo in 2017, Suncraft built their early identity on mid-tempo stoner rock, but Welcome To The Coven shows the band has broadened their foundation significantly. The album channels classic rock swagger, punk urgency, and flashes of blackened intensity without settling into pastiche or genre collage – think Turbonegro meets Venom with the odd helping of blast beats thrown in and you’re on your way.

Accompanying this sonic exploration, Suncraft delves into today’s strange and scary times of oligarchs, endless noise and rampant cult-like attitudes. Like on the opener, the thrash metal infused «Ragebait», which embodies a fierce, outrage-driven algorithm that hungers for anger, or on the somber, post-rock adjacent «High on Silence», which laments the difficulties of finding some peace of mind to cut through all the noise. Through it all, the quintet welcomes the listener into their playful world of serious rock n roll nonsense. The album’s eight tracks move fluidly between heavy riffing, hook-forward choruses and sudden shifts in mood, giving the record a restless, forward-thinking character that keeps its 40-minute runtime lean and engaging.

Welcome To The Coven is a confident step forward for a promising band which emphasizes their sharpened songwriting and willingness to push beyond scene expectations. The Vinyl will be available on April 10, 2026 from Norwegian purveyors of heavy rock label All Good Clean Records.
