Just
days from its worldwide release via Southern Lord is Blodets Bånd,
the debut album from Copenhagen, Denmark's brutal raw punk outfit, HALSHUG,
and in preparation, Invisible Oranges has unloaded the record's fourth track,
"Knæl." The feedback-soaked intro immediately gives way to one of the
most straightforward, circle pit-inducing, percussive d-beatings of the entire
album. Corresponding with the exclusive song premiere, Invisible Oranges
offers, "By the time you get to this point on the album, you're less than
six minutes in and you already have black eyes and broken teeth. By the end of
the eighth track, they live up to the translation of their name:
decapitate."
Unload
HALSHUG's "Knæl" through Invisible Oranges RIGHT HERE.
The
album's "Total Destruktion" was previously issued via Cvlt Nation HERE.
HALSHUG will
celebrate Blodets Bånd with a hometown record release show in
Copenhagen tomorrow, Friday, February 20th, joined by Weak, Horrendous,
Smitstof and Reverie. Additional live actions are being confirmed and even more
planned, the most recent additions include HALSHUGsupporting Harms
Way and also taking part in Copenhell Festival alongside the likes of Rise
Against, Gojira, Body Count, Life Of Agony, Bloodbath, Cannibal Corpse, At The
Gates and more, both in June. The band will also make its way to the US for the
first time later this year.

HALSHUG (which
translates to 'decapitate') is fast becoming known within Europe's hallowed DIY
routes and enclaves for their impeccably executed hardcore crust, which pays
furious tribute to their rich K-town heritage and crucially adds an abrasive
modern stomp. With searing distortion, radical d-beat pace, overblown reverb
vocals, HALSHUG leaves no room for subtlety or second-guessing
across the eight tracks of their first full-length effort, Blodets Bånd.
Watch as Blodets Bånd engulfs the world in flames.
