Årabrot – The Brother Seed
I’ve been waiting to hear this one for awhile. Årabrot is a Norwegian band that plays some downright nasty sounding noise-rock. The Brother Seed, released through Norway Rat records, is their third album if I am not mistaken after releasing two previous exceptional slabs of noise. Honestly if you’re a fan of noise-rock now just stop reading and skip to the tunes because there really isn’t much reason to read on. This stuff is pretty killer and absolutely crazed in all the right ways. I can never pinpoint what the singer is going to do, as it seems like every song he shouts, grumbles, and growls in different ways that sound equally terrifying no matter which he chooses. The music keeps things interesting as well, as Årabrot goes back and forth from a claustrophobic wall of distortion and drums to surprisingly melodic parts…or at least as melodic as something like this tends to be. Either way, the variations throughout the album help it maintain a level of consistent interest, along with propelling it to be what probably is their best effort to date. Definitely check this out.

For anyone looking to pick this up, hit up Norway Rat. Unfortunately I don’t think or at least haven’t noticed anyone that is carrying this in the US yet. But these guys are definitely worth the extra shipping in my opinion. Give it a go.
