about

Cold Spring presents two Swedish titans - NORDVARGR (MZ.412) and ᚦᛟᚦ ᚷᛁᚷ (TREPANERINGSRITUALEN) - teaming up for a bludgeoning dose of Death Industrial majesty.

Det Kätterska Förbund, consisting of the two giants dominating the Death Industrial world - Thomas Ekelund (Trepaneringsritualen, Dead Letters Spell Out Dead Words) + Henrik Nordvargr Björkk (MZ.412, Pouppée Fabrikk, Folkstorm etc) - has been slowly and methodically working for almost 5 years to finish the first album of this double-headed abomination. Patience richly rewarded.

You can instantly feel the presence of lurking unease as the album slowly opens up a distorted world of familiar sounds and voices, but there is something special about these recordings; the menacing aura that has been created adds new elements to the otherwise rigid tropes of the genre. Punishingly heavy rhythmic tracks, with savage incantations from both Thomas and Nordvargr, gratifyingly familiar to fans of the artists' main projects, are flanked by these death-scarred lamentations.

CD in debossed digipak.

LP on 180g vinyl in debossed sleeve:

Ltd x 250 copies on olive green vinyl (via Cold Spring and the artists only)

Reviews:

“Two heavyweights from Sweden darkest forests meet up for some heavy weight lifting… Everything is set to pitch black here, the rhythms operate as jackhammers, voices crawl up from way below the surface of the earth (more likely across the Styx, or Hades, or whatever your favourite underworld reference is) and the drones are a myriad of intertwining branches of a 1000-year-old tree. This is both music for rituals to be executed in the selfsame Swedish forests as well as an ode to the crushing wheels of the industrial revolution… You would expect all of this to be just walls of the murkiest noise found in the scene, but, as it turns out they've actually also gone for more song-like structures… something occultly lingers on in all of these pieces.” (Vital Weekly)

“…with the moniker translating to ‘The Heretical Association’, it is a suitable descriptor of the sounds and themes contained herein… a mid-paced and heavily percussive-driven ritual death industrial tone prevails, which in some ways any of the tracks could have easily been featured on either of the main projects’ albums… Ultimately this collaborative recording has a prevailing tone of potency and streamlined menace, and as such feels to be more than the simple sum of its collaborative halves… you should acquire without hesitation” (Noise Receptor)

“…some punishing yet lush death industrial from the unrelenting Swedish team-up that’s been brewing for a few years. Nordvargr collaborating with Thomas of Trepaneringsritualen makes plenty of sense to anyone familiar with the respective artists, and Lidaverken Del I: Att i Vådeld Förgås is an object lecture in texture and tension.” (I Die You Die)

“An endlessly ritualistic album that reaches the abysmal depths of darkness has landed through Cold Spring. We are in awe of the sonic partnership Det Kätterska Förbund, between Trepaneringsritualen and Nordvargr” (Blauerosen)

“Nordvargr y Thomas Ekelund vuelven a aunar ideas y fuerza para crear un nuevo proyecto dominado por la oscuridad y la intransigencia industrial... esta propuesta colaborativa se muestra abierta y rítmica, equilibrando piezas en las que prolifera el dark ambient, con otras mucho más definidas por la cadencia y con ciertas oscilaciones estéticas que crean una fórmula angulosa y dinámica dirigida a romper el esquema delineado anteriormente por estos artistas... Destaca el logrado juego de registros vocales que se entremezcla como si se tratase de masas de aire envenenado, otorgando a esta tonada una atmósfera única. Ambientación lúgubre para todo amante de un Apocalipsis digno.” (5/5, NOmelody)

“Una delle migliori uscite del 2021 e non solo. Siamo di fronte ad un lavoro che rivoluziona totalmente l’ambito del Death Industrial... È una visione prometeica che squarcia il cielo con bordate di drone music, schegge impazzite di morte su scala industriale e rituali “eretici” per un “nuovo inizio”, un disco per la post-apocalisse a venire... Con Det Kätterska Förbund si cementa finalmente un sodalizio tra le due leggende della musica svedese più oscura... nuove, inedite ed eretiche forme sonore.” (Archeo Futurismi)

“Poseedor de la inigualable maestría creativa que siempre adquiere la innovación conceptual nacida en Suecia, Det Kätterska Förbund es la mayor muestra de vanguardia musical death-industrial que se haya presentado hasta el momento... una completa fusión de ideas, de inspiraciones, de inmersiones conceptuales de vanguardia protagonizadas por estos dos geniales compositores suecos... el impacto sonoro que produce la audición de esta joya discográfica es monumental y seductoramente nítida en su registro sonoro... un siniestra atmósfera sonora death-industrial que perturba por su poso existencial nihilista y panóptico, además de conmocionar la mente del melómano por su trasfondo decadente, apocalíptico, lúgubre, y premonitorio” (Lux Atenea)

“Wie klingt wohl das Resultat, wenn sich zwei schwedische Industrial Größen vereinen? Det Kätterska Förbund gibt uns dafür die Antwort, ... Die doch recht kühle Basis in Kombination mit harschen Elementen stellt jene Publikation stark in die harsche Industrial Schiene, wo man sich mit sieben Kompositionen konfrontiert sieht, die nicht unbedingt als freundlich zu benennen sind... in die Krachecke gehört man definitiv nicht mit diesem Tonträger, wo es mitunter rhythmisch, aber auch irgendwie schwer und düster zur Sache geht... arg mächtiges Zeug, welches unheilvoll und bedrohlich seinen Kreis zieht und sofort den Funken überspringen lässt... Einmal tief in den Kern eingedrungen, so werden dunkle Seelen aber definitiv voll auf ihre Kosten kommen.” (8/10, Raben Report)

“...die Musik von Det Kätterska Forbund funktioniert wie eine unheimliche Sage, die seit Generationen weitergegeben wird. Man spürt die Inhalte in den Knochen, man gruselt sich trotz abgebrühter Lebenshaltung... ein Höhepunkt des Death Industrial… Verkrampft und zu Tode gedacht sind die sieben Stücke auf dem Album deswegen nicht, vielmehr wabert durch die Gassen der Mief, Nebel bündelt sich über den geschändeten Gräbern. Det Kätterska Forbund nutzen elektronische Sounds und minimalistische Rhythmen für die Besuche in den Schatten... macht die Arbeitsgeräusche aus der Hölle hörbar. Es ist hitzig, dreckig und lärmig, die gewohnte Umgebung wird unwirtlich... bleibt niemand verschont.” (Art Noir)

“Sakrale Gesänge, perkussive Schläge, surrende analoge Schleifen, dazu Black Metal-Keifen und sakrale Orgelflächen... durchaus rituellen Charakter... dissonanter und erinnert mit den verzerrten und kaputten Beats... Die verfremdete Stimme rezitiert Unaussprechliches... unheimlichen Sounds an einem leicht unruhigen, atonalen Dark Ambient... entmenschlichtem Schreien aus... stampfenden Rhtyhmik deklamierende Vocals, die nach Trunkenheit klingen.... monströsen Gesängen und lärmender Fabrikhalle... Death Industrial kann in den besten Momenten eine (be-)drückende Stimmung erzeugen und desolate Landschaften entstehen lassen und auch Björk und Ekelund gelingt das durchaus” (African Paper)

“…zpráva o spojení dvou švédských ikon žánru by pro vás měla být obdobou druhých vánoc... na desce nepůjde pouze o sonická jatka, ale že budou oba pánové hrubou sílu často mísit i s hloubavými melodickými momenty.... Mistrovství alba je v tom, že i když tušíme možnost srovnat vše několika tahy se zemí, dvojice se často s oblibou drží na hraně očekávání” (His Voice)
