Slomosa Post ‘The Making of Tundra Rock‘ Documentary and Performance Video
Hitting Ireland and the UK in a couple weeks’ time before returning to the US for their second Stateside touring stint since their second album, Tundra Rock (review here), was released last September, Norwegian heavy rock spearheads Slomosa — seen above in full flannel regalia — have rolled out ‘The Making of Tundra Rock,’ a 37-minute documentary and performance video that goes behind the scenes as its title suggests. The band, maybe last week?, had put up a video for “Monomann” from the album that would seem to have been taken from this, and it’s one more way in which they’re engaging their audience and inviting people to take a look at what they do on a professional level.
This just came down the wire this morning, so I haven’t had time to sit in my own ’70s cushion chair and dig in, but you do get to see the band recount their favorites from the new record (and then play them) and the sound on the recordings is such that if the audio was posted to Bandcamp as an album-performance in-studio live record kind of thing it’d probably be worth picking up, so even at a skim it’s got something to offer anybody who dug the record. And if Slomosa‘s winning the year-end poll here is anything to go by, that’s plenty of people.
The video, PR wire info, and all the upcoming tour dates I currently have follow here. Enjoy:

Slomosa’s New LP, ‘Tundra Rock’, Out Now!
Norwegian “tundra rock” band, Slomosa, has released a live-in-studio performance and interview video centered on its new album, ‘Tundra Rock’, which was released this past September via Stickman Records in Europe and MNRK Heavy in the US, and was hailed as “a sweeping signature hybrid of revved-up stoner rock riffage, grungy hooks, and a concentrated punk wallop”. Recorded live in Bergen, Norway, the 37-minute “Making of ‘Tundra Rock'” video spotlights the undeniable energy and unquestionable catchiness that surrounds Slomosa, paired with behind-the-scenes stories about creating the album and forming the band.
Simultaneously, Slomosa drops a new play through music video for the powerful ‘Tundra Rock’ track “Monomann”. Crank it up now.
