Black Hearse Sjodogg is a Avant-Garde/Progressive Black Metal Band from Oslo, Norway. Formed in 2003. Whereas its predecessor, Vanskapning (Duplicate Records 2020), was arranged and recorded as one lengthy track, LORE does the exact opposite, consisting of 12 shorter instalments. Still constructed to be listened to as a whole, the pieces segue naturally into one another, creating a whole greater than the sum of it parts. Stylistically, the album lands somewhere between the monolithic shadow of Vanskapning, and the earlier more conventionally structured works. However, the way the parts are arranged bring to mind a movie soundtrack, which makes sense as the early embryo of the album was vastly inspired by Charles Bernstein's Relentless Attack which featured in the 1982 supernatural horror film The Entity. With the lyrics also drawing inspiration from horrific tales, and unique, eerie artwork, LORE becomes so much more than just another metal record, and something of an artefact of horror itself. Sjodogg started out in Oslo, Norway, releasing their two first albums Landscapes Of Disease And Decadence and Ode to Obscurantism in 2007 and 2010 respectively, following up with Som en Øks i Hodet in 2015 and Vanskapning in 2020. “Lore“ was recorded at varius locations during 2022/23, mixed and mastered by Kjetil Ottersen, and produced by SJODOGG and Kjetil Ottersen. Artwork by JC datsfaH. “Lore“ is 5th Album from the band! lineup Vulnus - Vocals Dracunculus - Guitars Tetrapus - Bass Hordeolum - Drums Digital/Physical (Vinyl) album available here: Follow/Support Sjodogg: Duplicate Records Contact: dplctrecords@ ThePsyfrost Facebook Group: Help ThePsyfrost with donation: Upload with permission and behalf of Sjodogg.
