Slomosa Post New Single “There is Nothing New Under the Sun”
Posted in Whathaveyou on March 2nd, 2020 by JJ Koczan
Based in Bergen on the Western Coast of Norway, the relative newcomer four-piece Slomosa will issue their debut long-player sometime later this year through Apollon Records. Info is scarce in terms of things like when it was recorded, how, by whom, how many songs will be on it or when it’s coming out, but there are two songs streaming — the prior single “Horses” and the newer single “There is Nothing New Under the Sun” — and I dig both. “There is Nothing New Under the Sun” is mega-catchy in an earlier Queens of the Stone Age vein, while “Horses” reminds a bit of The Sword, but maybe that’s splitting hairs because the underlying point here is they’ve got hooks and that’s a damn good place for a new band to start.
They call the style “tundra rock” — a desert with ice, you know — and for that alone, never mind the chorus of “Horses,” they remind me a bit of Washington’s Lords of the North, but that seems more the result of a common influence from the aforementioned The Sword than anything else. Either way, as I said, two tracks out there and I dig it.
You can hear both songs below. “There is Nothing New Under the Sun” and “Horses” are both also up on Spotify, but those embeds look like crap and I’d rather see YouTube players than two of those, so here we go:
Tundra Rock Is Still Alive! Desert Rockers SLOMOSA Share New Single There is Nothing New Under the Sun!
Debut Album later this year.
Not much is known yet of Bergen, Norway’s new shooting stars of huge rock Slomosa, except they are four relatively soft men who play tough and heavy desert rock. But they call it Tundra Rock up there…
Today Slomosa are back with their second single There is Nothing New Under the Sun, and it’s no less heavy than their first single Horses!
The yet untitled debut Album is coming in early 2020 on Apollon Records of Bergen, Norway. Stay tuned.
