New signing: AMONG GODS
We’re excited to announce that Norway based Doom Death Metal band AMONG GODS is now part of ARGONAUTA Records family!
Initially formed as a studio side-project by vocalist Kenneth «Ripper» Olsen (SYRACH) in 2010, quite soon becomes clear that the band takes on a new direction that cannot be constrained to the world of music studios alone.
During the fall of 2011 Among Gods recorded their self-titled debut album in Conclave Studio (Bergen). The debut is available on LP (City Of The Dead Records), CD (PRC Music – Canada) and digital edition.
In 2013 the band lay their hands on the follow-up “Monument”. The recording of the album was done in Mølla Studio (Gjerstad) and Conclave Studio (Bergen).
«Monument» was released on CD via PRC Music (Canada) on the 27th of May 2014.
In early 2014 Geir Myklebust Sjo joined Among Gods on a permanent basis.
During 2015 Among Gods new opus “Ghost Empire” was recorded and will be released via Argonauta Records (Italy) in mid 2016. Once again Among Gods will bring darkness & doom to the world.
Ripper says: “Needless to say, but we are very proud to present our new opus “Ghost Empire” on Argonauta Records. So we hope a horde of black souls will walk the darkest paths with us through this album, this is dark, this is death, this is doom!! Filled with ear-catching heavy riffs, a brutal voice and pounding drums Among Gods will offer you enough doom to last for a lifetime. Cheers to Gero of Argonauta Records for trusting in old doomsters from the weathered shores of Norway`s westcoast.”
