Høstsabbat 2023 Adds Tuskar to Lineup
As they make ready to play Desertfest London this weekend, UK duo Tuskar give something (else) to look forward to in being the latest addition to the lineup for the 10th anniversary of Høstsabbat in Oslo this October. I’m already thinking of this as a set of a kin to Slabdragger or Slomatics in terms of the something-very-heavy-from-the-British-Isles-in-the-church-basement ideal, and that should be just ducky, thanks. The band last year released their Matriarch LP as the follow-up to 2018’s The Tide, Beneath, The Wall (review here), and as noted below, this will be their second excursion to Norway, and I very much hope to be there to see it.
I’m late on this today so there’s no time to waste. Here’s word from the fest:
HØSTSABBAT 2023 – TUSKAR (UK)
This week we are bringing you guys one of the most promising, prolific and uprising two-pieces our entire community has on offer.
Tuskar is pounding their sludge with a self esteem, ease and punchy heaviness rarely seen, and the riffs just keep pulling you further down their rocky abyss. The way they combine melodic and atmospheric passages with primal and absolute destruction is nothing but masterly done.
Tuskar has proven themselves to be the next generation’s sludge duo, picking up the heritage from Eagle Twin, Black Cobra and all the other gold that came out of Georgia and the States earlier in this decade.
Their recent album «MATRIARCH» is a pure bliss from start to finish, and the sense of future success shines through like (the?) Aurora Borealis(?). This band is going somewhere, and we believe it’s somewhere big.
Rumors say they laid completely waste at Brewgata on their first Norwegian visit this winter, and we are thrilled to bring them back and see what their chugg will do to the Church.
Please welcome TUSKAR to Høstsabbat 2023 (#128165#)
