Endolith on Rob Mules Records!

These creative, eclectic and extreme metallers from Tromso/Harstad are onboard for a future release through our label.

We didn’t know much of them before they came to our attention a month ago. It took us no time to decide that this trio were more than welcome to join our roster. You can check out the links at the bottom of this article, and we’re pretty sure you’ll be amazed.

Endolith are for the time being working on their follow-up to ‘Voyager’ (released December 2016). Rob Mules Records have had the pleasure of listening to their new stuff, and let it be perfectly clear; the music sounds even more extreme than the predecessor – in all possible ways!

Go on and listen to them at Spotify, or check out their Facebook page.

Say hello to Tonic Breed!

We welcome Tonic Breed from Sarpsborg (Norway) to our label, a trash metal band in the veins of great acts like Slayer, Metallica and Pantera.

Tonic Breed will release their next album through Rob Mules Records. The time for release has not been set, but we will of course come back with more info when we have a clearer idea.

The band was founded in 2006 and has produced two studio albums and four music videos. ‘Outsold’ (released 2014) was well received by national and international album critics. Asbjørn Slettemark (P3 Pyro) credited Tonic Breed as one of the most promising bands in Norway that same year.

The quartet is now ready to up their game, and Rob Mules Records are more than happy to help this brilliant band reach greater heights.

Band presentation – Ohmwork

Next up are Ohmwork, a power trio from Tromso/Norway.

Ohmwork have two albums, one EP and three single releases to their name. Both albums got the critics raving about an extremely tight band with the ability to tackle classic rock, progressive metal and pretty much all that is in-between.

Ohmwork were established in 2012, and held their first concert in early 2013. One year after in February 2014 they released their debut album, ‘Storm Season’. In 2015 ‘ShadowTech’ came out, and a year later ‘Mother City (EP)’ was released. This was a month before they played a blistering set at Buktafestivalen. Ohmwork have toured the Norwegian rock circuit the past five years, including support slots for Jorn.

Ohmwork will release their third album in October this year. A double concept album – nothing short of groundbreaking for a Norwegian rock act.

Band presentation – Vederkast

We will give our audience an introduction to our signed bands over the next couple of months. First out, Rob Mules Records proudly present Vederkast. Not a novice by any means, and probably all of you have either seen Vederkast in concert or listened to their music. Rob Mules Records will release their second album sometime early 2018.

Established in 2013, Vederkast were formed by musicians formerly known from cool acts like Turdus Musicus, Taliban Airways, Just Did Doris and Rocketboyz. The foursome began writing songs that later would become their debut album. ‘Northern Gothic’ was released in March 2015, and it was very well received by the critics.

Vederkast have toured Germany, Netherlands and Belgium twice since ‘Northern Gothic’ saw the light of day. They have also played numerous dates across Norway, including a handful of festivals.

Ohmwork

A power trio from Tromso/Norway.

“You can hear it in their music, sophomore album ‘ShadowTech’ boasting infuences such as Sabbath and Lizzy. And then there’s their playing; this is a band full of the kind of swagger that’s born of miles on the road and hours in the studio. They’re tight, too: the kind of tightness that only three-pieces seem able to muster; the instruments practically breathing together.” (Powerplay, October 2015 by Wayne Simmons)
