With inspirations from the resistance movement in Norway during the 2^nd World War, the young metal band Sabotør (Saboteur) offers you some hard-hitting and old-school metal.
 
Formed in 2024 by Rasmus Stenstadvolden Strømberg (bass and vocals), Andreas Remmen (guitar) and Mathilde Solemdal (drums), the trio started slamming out epic metal/punk tracks with the inspiration from bands like English Dogs, Brocas Helm and Warfare. All packed in the theme of the Norwegian resistance movement during the 2^nd World War, with lyrics in Norwegian.
 
Their debut album, “Første Aksjon”, is set to be released on May the 8^th. The album was recorded at Formkraft Produksjoner and the album was mixed by Remi André Nygård (Morax/Inculter).

The second single, “Sabotør”, was released on Friday the 20^th February. You can check out the single here: https://orcd.co/sabotoer

Sabotør has this to say about the track:
This song tells the story of the Norwegian heavy water sabotage that took place near Rjukan, Telemark, in 1943. A group of saboteurs in the operations Grouse, Freshman and Gunnerside were deployed on the Hardanger Plateau, where they would take their way on ski to the Vemork power station. The objective was to destroy the plant and sabotage the German heavy water production, which was to be used in the development of nuclear weapons. The British glider assault, Operation Freshman, was unsuccessful, and all survivors were executed. Operations Gunnerside and Grouse managed to successfully land on the plateau, joined forces, and they infiltrated the Vemork plant and destroyed the production facility the night of 27 – 28. February, 1943.

The riffs are rolled in with barbed wire, and each song delivers dynamite, vandalism, espionage and sabotage!

Formed in 2024 by Rasmus Stenstadvolden Strømberg (bass and vocals), Andreas Remmen (guitar) and Elias Solemdal (drums), the trio started slamming out epic metal/punk tracks with the inspiration from bands like English Dogs, Brocas Helm and Warfare. All packed in the theme of the Norwegian resistance movement during the 2^nd World War, with lyrics in Norwegian.
 
Their authentic sound attracted the attention from Dark Essence Records, and the band signed a deal for their upcoming debut album, which they are recording at Formkraft Produksjoner and the album will be mixed by Remi André Nygård (Morax/Inculter).

While we wait for them to finish the recording, the band is unleashing their first single, “Skyggens Frekvens”, today, on Tuesday the 4^th of November. You can check out the single here: https://orcd.co/skyggens-frekvens

Sabotør has this to say about the track:
The title is in Norwegian and can be translated to “The frequency of the shadows”. The song is about saboteurs in Norway who during World War II communicated with allied forces using radio while hiding from the Germans in caves and huts. The lyrics are loosely based on the chapter “Med radiosendar på Loddo” (With radio transmitter on Loddo) from the book “Krigen og Austevoll 1940-45” (The war and Austevoll 1940-45), where two saboteurs have to take shelter from German soldiers after having operated a radio station in the forest where they reported in morse code about ships and the weather.
 
Sabotør will do a support gig at Hulen, Bergen on the 8^th of November.
