Lizard Lounge by Barren Womb

Barren Womb, this fearsome sonic force from Finland and Norway, will launch a boiling fresh onslaught of an album, 'Lizard Lounge', on May 22 through Loyal Blood Records. It’s time again.
Barren Womb might be the hardest working band in the Norwegian underground, touring relentlessly, and offering a slew of releases since their inception in 2011. They are complete masters of their craft, capturing their raw and unpolished live energy in studio recordings. This is true more than ever on 'Lizard Lounge'. It’s like being thrown in the pit, right in front of them, in a crammed room with spit and sweat flying. It’s hardcore. Northern hardcore. The in-your-face approach of 'Lizard Lounge' can draw parallels from Refused to Clutch, and it carries them on a cathartic journey, leaving the mind and soul free of the angst-ridden emotions Barren Womb put on display in their songs.
After nine years following an uncompromising DIY path, Timo and Tony can be melodic, scathing, catchy, intense, punky or heavy as a concrete Chevy. 'Lizard Lounge' shifts between screeching guitars and total anguish to sore and mellow passages, only to leave you floored again with a catchiness unexpected from a band operating in their style. Mind blown.
When Barren Womb release a new record, expect the unexpected and still be surprised. These two maniacs can do no wrong.
