Brotthogg are back with their third full-length album, “Epicinium”

Brotthogg are back with their third full-length album, Epicinium, following the critically acclaimed “Echoes of the Past” (2019) and “The Die is Cast” (2020). With this new album Brotthogg again presents a dynamic display of deathly blackened and thrashing extremity filled with dark and gloomy melodies.

“As always we try to provide a personal approach towards the fine attributes extreme metal has to offer. Our focus is to create something brutal and aggressive, but also melodic and progressive, all interspersed with the freezing cold layers of black metal. Whether you call it back metal, death metal or even thrash metal, we hope we have created an intriguing release well worth exploring”.

What to expect? Check out some feedback of Brotthogg previous album “The Die is Cast”:

Brotthogg are for sure the most promising newcomers in Norway. Go and check it out.”VM-Underground Fanzine

“The elements of black, symphonic and thrash are harmoniously meshed in this musical masterpiece, making it an intriguing sensation for the ears.”Metal-Roos

Brotthogg are so heavy and steamrollering, that country compatriots DARKTHRONE do the polka” Death Scream

BROTTHOGG is really a great band, and to be described as a mix between EMPEROR, SYMPHONY X and DISSECTION. And “The Die is Cast” is really a great surprise.”Metal Temple

Brotthogg deals in melodic black/death/thrash metal that owes its allegiance to bands like Emperor’, Old Man’s Child, Symphony X and Dissection. The members are known from bands like Subliritum and Chton.
The name Brotthogg is derived from an old forgotten Norwegian word in dialect meaning “The one who has to take care of the job, the unpleasant one”.

Brotthogg’s album Epicinium can be pre-ordered on their Bandcamp page.

Kristian Larsen Moen – All instruments, music and lyrics
