Since their inception in late 2011, Nordic heavy noise rockers Barren Womb have been raising both eyebrows and hell with their minimalistic approach, earsplitting volume and defiant experimentation. The duo make efficient use of crude dynamics and the power of the riff to hammer their point across.
Through four critically acclaimed albums, a slew of EP's and singles, and hundreds of shows across Europe and the US, Barren Womb have earned a reputation of being one of Norway's hardest working bands. They have shared stages with among others Entombed A.D., Voivod, Conan, Nomeansno and Årabrot, and have played festivals like SXSW, NXNE, by:Larm, Tallinn Music Week, Øya and Pstereo. "Chemical Tardigrade", the duo's fifth album, was released February 16, 2024 to rave reviews through Fucking North Pole Records/Blues For The Red Sun. Here they present a raw, bombastic slab of noise rock broken into 11 distinct pieces, all of which are as unhinged as they are unorthodox.
