A gig held at The Old England Pub on Saturday 28th March. The event starts at 20:00.
BARREN WOMB PLAY THE OLD E
For over 15 years, the Nordic noise rock powerhouse Barren Womb have been a primordial force in the ever-evolving international heavy underground.
Once described as "easy listening for the hard of hearing”, the duo of Timo Silvola (drums/vocals) and Tony Gonzalez (guitar/vocals) conjure an unholy racket that is as unorthodox as it is weirdly catchy.
Stark minimalism, grinding repetition and quiet/loud dynamics are all essential parts of Barren Womb’s primitive approach to punk rock, creating a backdrop for howling laments about our shared dystopian fever dream more commonly known as modern life.
Through five critically acclaimed albums, a slew of EP’s and singles, and hundreds of shows across Europe and North America, Barren Womb have earned a reputation of being one of Norway’s best and hardest working live bands.
They have shared stages with among others Conan, Entombed A.D., Nomeansno, Slomosa and Voivod, and have played festivals like SXSW, NXNE, by:Larm, Tallinn Music Week, Summer Dying Loud, Deserfest Oslo, Høstsabbat, Øya and Pstereo.
“Norwegian noise rock duo reassert their invincibility”
- Metal Hammer UK, 8/10
“Like a perfect combination of the Refused and Rocket From the Crypt”
- Decibel Magazine
“If you find that hardcore is too hardcore, that stoner is too stoned, that punk is too stupid, that noise is too loud, then Barren Womb will free you from all that without you even realizing it”
- COREandCO, 9/10
