Der schwedische Shining-Mastermind Niklas Kvarforth hat mit HØSTSOL (Herbstsonne) eine neue Band gegründet. Mitbegründer der Band ist Cernunnus alias Tor-Helge Skei (Manes); unterstützt werden beide von Bassist Kalmos (Ajattara) und Schlagzeuger Hellhammer (Mayhem). Derzeit befindet sich die Band im Studio und nimmt ihr Debüt auf.
Hier das Statement von Kvarforth im O-Ton:
»it is with a sinister smile upon my lips that I today announce my new band, HØSTSOL, and that we are actually currently in the studio recording our debut album, which is set to be released by The Sinister Initiative in 2021.
The band was originally a project that me and Cernunnus had been working on, but as we began recording we soon felt that HØSTSOL should be a real band instead of a mere project, and therefore recruited Finnish madman Kalmos on Bass, and my dear old friend and former Shining-collague Hellhammer on drums.
Our Logo and symbol, made by brother Tuoppi, speaks for itself, or at least should speak for itself, and be a hint at what our collaboration sounds like. It feels fantastic to completely put my musical demons into something else than Shining, and not being entirely in charge of everything. I can’t wait to expose the ugliness of the human spirit to all of you…«
Da erwartet uns wohl tiefschwarzes Metall, mit torpedoartigen Drums und einzigartigen Vocals.
Stimmiges, passendes Logo. Gutes Lineup. Netter Name.
Würde sagen die Basis ist da. Lasst mal was hören.
