Mystery Dudes Sign to Electric Valley Records
As of right now, this very second these words are appearing on my screen, there is one (1) copy of Mystery Dudes‘ 2019 First Blood EP available on tape left through their Bandcamp. They made a grand total of 54 of them to sell there and at shows, as if to demonstrate precisely what tapes are for and why they continue to serve a purpose in this digitally-focused, stream-everything age. I’m saying spend your hard-earned 85 NOK, but if you’ve got it, the release — also streaming below — gives fodder for a FOMO kick-in.
Now then. The good news is that whenever Mystery Dudes might present a follow-up to that EP, they’ll do so in association with Electric Valley Records, continuing a streak of righteous pickups from the label that also includes Electric Mountain from Mexico, When the Deadbolt Breaks, Crypt Monarch, on and on. In my head I’ve been composing a ‘labels to watch’ list — should probably put that in my notes, come to think of it — and Electric Valley are for sure on that list, the imprint having carved out a roster of talent at the behest of founder Marco Nieddu (also of 1782) that’s diverse in geography as well as sound while maintaining a heavy-for-heavy-heads-by-heavy-heads ethic.
I’ll keep an eye out for more on this one, and in the meantime try to stop myself from ordering that tape above while listening to the stream below. These are the challenges of doing what I do.

MYSTERY DUDES – Electric Valley Records
Electric Valley Records is proud to announce the signing of the Heavy Rock band…
Mystery Dudes
Mystery Dudes will melt your face of with their eclectic, fuzzed out blend of stoner rock, punk and heavy psych.
Regardless of style, the sonic output is always heavy, hypnotic and hits you in all the right places at once!
Hailing from the far out corners of Norway’s wasteland, the hard hitting power-trio made Oslo their home base.
There they cultivated heavy riffs and catchy tunes in their secret lair, before unleashing the beast now known as Mystery Dudes!
Stay Tuned
Mystery Dudes:
Bjørnar Lien Roset – Guitar / Vocals
Rolf Bang – Bass
Ola Jørgen Kyrkjeeide – Drums
