There isn’t much more about Norwegian classic heavy rockers Tyburn (also written as Tÿburn, with an umlaut over the ‘y’) out there than a couple of rough tracks available to stream through Soundcloud, but the band has signed to Cruz del Sur Music for the early-2017 release of their debut album, and that’s not a minor endorsement to receive. Uniting disparate acts like Argus, Apostle of Solitude and Bible of the Devil (among many, many others) is a strong sense of traditionalism, and it would seem Tyburn, which features members of Devil and Electric Woodland, have that working in their favor as well, with, as the PR wire notes, a big of proto-NWOBHM flourish for good measure.

Will be interested to hear how these raw incarnations pan out in their final versions when the album arrives. Until then, from the PR wire:

CRUZ DEL SUR MUSIC Inks Deal with Heavy Rockers TYBURN

Cruz Del Sur Music has signed Norwegian heavy rockers TYBURN. The band will begin recording its debut album in November and the release is targeted for early 2017.

Tyburn was a village in the county of Middlesex close to the current location of Marble Arch and the southern end of Edgware Road in present-day London. For many centuries, the name Tyburn was synonymous of capital punishment, having been the principal place for execution of London criminals and convicted traitors.

Inspired by the likes of PENTAGRAM and others 70s hard rock bands, as well as by NWOBHM legends. TYBURN features members of DEVIL, VESEN and ELECTRIC WOODLAND. In Tyburn gallows, ropes and executions are the gloomy backdrop for brilliant songwriting that turns every song into a memorable, grim yet catchy musical experience.

Ronny Østli (Devil, Vesen) – Vocals
Thomas Ljosåk (Devil, Vesen) – Bass
Emil Kjærnli (Electric Woodland) – Drums
Christian Olsen-Ruud (Electric Woodland) – Guitar
