ENG:

Diana Burkot (Pussy Riot)

The Russian art and activism collective Pussy Riot became internationally famous in the early 2010s thanks to their daring performances in support of freedom and against the oppressive regimes of Vladimir Putin and the Russian Orthodox Church.

As a founding member, multidisciplinary artist Diana Burkot played a significant role in shaping Pussy Riot’s ethos and participated in their most impactful events, including the protest performance in a Moscow cathedral that led to the arrest and imprisonment of two group members.

More recently, she was part of the Riot Days world tour, advocating for feminism, LGBTQ rights, and an end to Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Diana’s energetic performance with Pussy Riot embodies her dedication to human rights, peace, and a fearless approach to art and activism.



Kanaan (NO)

Kanaan produce so much music that the fuzz pedals hardly need to be turned off between each session. Once again, they step out of the rehearsal room, and with them they’ve got the brand new album Downpour.

It’s not difficult to hear that this is a continuation of their last album, Earthbound, and many of the ideas on Downpour came about when they recorded the previous record in Athletic Sound in Halden, where this one was recorded too. The heaviest songs on the album are a continuation of the idea of ​​”The Great riff” and the feeling of overwhelm and ecstasy when one good riff is replaced by another. When it comes to those parts, bands like Kyuss, MC5, Sleep and Hawkwind are still great sources of inspiration – while Needlepoint and Dungen have been important for the more melodic material on the album.

You got to hold tight so you don’t fall off your chair when they blast out the monster riffs on songs like “Orbit”, “Solaris pt. 2” and not least “Amazon”, where they are joined by one of Norway’s most kick-ass guitarists, Hedvig Mollestad. All three members of the band have long been fans of Mollestad and her music, and the fact that she is on their record is a dream come true.

The band themselves say they feel that the chemistry and songwriting on this record, to a greater extent, allows them to own the rock language that they flirted with on Earthbound, and it feels like a worthy sequel to a record that has been very important in the band’s history. It’s hard not to agree with that.

Since Kanaan released their fourth album Earthbound on Jansen Records in November 2021, they’ve also managed to release the 27-minute long single “Beyond” and the session album Diversions vol. 1 – Softly through Sunshine, before they now release Downpour. There are no days off in the calendars of Eskild Myrvoll, Ingvald André Vassbø and Ask Vatn Strøm.

New Age Doom (CA)

Consisting of the core duo of Eric J. Breitenbach and Greg Valou plus an ever-expanding roster of Canadian and global musical talents, New Age Doom is a genre-defying platform for experimentation and collaboration where many musical and aesthetic interests combine and contrast to create powerful sonic statements. Thriving on spontaneity, ambiguity and experimentation, New Age Doom offers a unique vision of extreme music where anything can happen.

The band is known for its eclectic and collaborative approach, working with various guest artists from different genres and countries, including Jamaican dub legend Lee “Scratch” Perry, American jazz luminaries Tim Lefebvre, Donny McCaslin and Daniel Rosenboom, as well as members of MONO, Team Sleep, Glassjaw, Death Grips and Quicksand.

The band’s music blends elements of drone metal and progressive rock with jazz, dub and global music styles to create a unique and immersive sound praised by critics and audiences alike.

The band’s latest album, There Is No End, is a collaboration with Norway’s Tuva Hellum Marschhäuser (Tuvaband) that sees the band evolve towards a more melodic direction while retaining their signature freewheeling chaos.

In 2021, New Age Doom garnered international attention and acclaim for their collaboration with Lee “Scratch” Perry on an album that blended dub with jazz, drone metal and prog to create a poignant swansong and tribute to the late dub legend, who passed away shortly before the album’s release.

New Age Doom is a band that defies conventions and boundaries, creating music that is both challenging and captivating. New Age Doom is more than a band: it is an artistic philosophy. They are known for their collaborations with premium food brands to create edible merch, such as Habanero Supernova, a vegan cream cheese by Spread 'Em Kitchen, and Righteous Gin, a non-alcoholic beverage infusion crafted by Long Cap Liquor.

New Age Doom is known for its energetic live performances and immersive sound. Despite performing as a duo, without the aid of loops or backing tracks, they cover a full band’s worth of sounds thanks to Breitenbach’s live triggering of vocal samples, synths and sub kick, and Valou’s custom-made instruments and multi-amp pedalboards, which allow him to cover guitar and bass simultaneously.

" ... sophisticated, dramatic, and emotionally layered ... the 'New Age Doom' name has come to represent less a cheeky genre mash-up than a guiding philosophy, a means to manifest the balance of natural beauty and apocalyptic chaos that governs life on Earth."

Pitchfork (US) - November 2023

“…A work of incredible creativity and ambition ... one which follows no rules or set formula … it will take you places that few other albums will."
