Portland, OR doom/sludge titans NORSKA (featuring members of YOB) are set to unleash their debut release on September 18th via Brutal Panda Records.

The 5 song, 40 minute eponymous debut was recorded by Adam Bradley Pike (BLACK ELK, RED FANG) at Toadhouse Studios in the band’s hometown.

Mixing heavy, meditative riffs and a thundering rhythm section with psychedelic flourishes, Norska prove they are true masters of their craft. The album is available for pre-order here.
