BLOOD COMMAND • Praise Armageddonism (Half Orange, Half Purple) • LP

Hassle Records

The unique and critically acclaimed Norwegian quartet Blood Command returns with a brand new album "Praise Armageddonism" via Hassle Records. T
he new album is the first to feature Nikki Brumen, formerly of Pagan, as the band's frontwoman and lead vocalist. With a distance of 10,000 miles between Nikki (in Melbourne, Australia) and the rest of the band (in Bergen, Norway), 2020 didn't quite go according to plan. After original plans to record in Norway had to be put on hold, the band decided to record the new album remotely in January 2021; all music was recorded in Norway, while Nikki recorded vocals in a local studio as soon as regional restrictions allowed.
"A Villain's Monologue" is the first track on the new album, with Nikki showing why she was so highly regarded in Pagan, leading Kerrang to describe her vocals as "a riotous display of unbridled talent that undoubtedly marks her out as a future star." The band, which self-describes its sound as "deathpop," is a unique project.

Hardcore meets metal meets pop meets punk. The band has already been called "one of the best kept secrets in the world" by Rock Sound, received the award for one of the albums of the year in Kerrang! and has been praised by Metal Hammer.
