Høstsabbat 2023 Adds JAGGU to Lineup
I’ve had the new JAGGU album, Rites for the Damned, set to include in the next Quarterly Review since the last one ended. It’ll be the second, maybe third week of April before I get there, but that’s still plenty in advance of their appearance on the Norwegian stage at this year’s Høstsabbat, for which they’re confirmed as of today. They join the hardcore/noise-tinged Akersborg in that regard, as the festival presents the diversity of Oslo’s underground as analogue for its own growth in each and variety. You will not find me arguing.
And I feel like I say that every time, as these weekly updates continue. I’m still not sure we’ve gotten the full answer of the shape Høstsabbat will ultimately take, but I don’t think we’re halfway through the lineup yet, so I’m not sure we should have, either. There’s time. I continue to look forward to what’s next, and having no clue in that regard is part of the fun, at least so far.
See you next Friday:
HØSTSABBAT 2023 – JAGGU
Friday!
Crisp, cool and bright – Showing Oslo from its very best side.
Days like this makes us count the days – and in just about seven months we will open the doors to church once again.
But back to now:
The poster of today is living proof of the tightly knit community existing in our beloved city. The man behind this year´s visual profile, our good friend HYPNOTIST DESIGN] is also the man behind the camera, capturing the bearded excellence of today’s announcement: JAGGU!
The men of JAGGU has certainly proven their existence over the years. The steady course from back- to foreground of the flourishing Oslo-scene has been fueled with heavier riffs for every occasion. A solid confidence gained by hard work, creativity and a love for heavy, sludgy music. It´s rewarding to see bands grow like this, and the best part is that they never stop.
Just weeks ago JAGGU dropped their new, astonishing full length «Rites for the Damned» An album that will bring the sonic palette of JAGGU to ears way outside of Oslo. This album totally rips!
JAGGU shows a fearless approach with their mentioned creativity, both riffs and vocals are refreshingly commanding. Some might draw comparison to the glory days of a certain Georgia quintet even.
We cant wait to be completely pummeled by this inter-continental three piece!
Please welcome JAGGU to our ten-year anniversary!
