FÖRBITTRING emerged out of hardcore punk band GENERATION 84 in 2020, as it had reached the end of its creative cycle and this brought a breath of air to the band and its members, rekindling a fire that was deemed to be lost. Guitarist Wesley Vanmal and singer Teun Van Aerschot tossed some musical ideas back and forth, which quickly resulted into a framework of ten metallic hardcore punk songs with a Scandinavian twist. They produced those songs with Bob Demarsin into a consistent album.
FÖRBITTRING’s self-titled debut album is out now (CD & tape) on the renowned Genet Records label. The vinyl version will follow later this spring. It’s a 10-song compendium of short, snappy, hard-hitting, metallic hardcore punk songs, intertwined with longer, dark and gloomy metal tracks, reminiscent of RISE AND FALL, TRAGEDY and DISFEAR, but also of movie classics like Doubt, Sleepers and Joker.
