The confirmed bunch of artists so far, has left our Norwegian stage more or less unnoticed. That is about to change starting now.
Verkstedet has grown into a sinful pit of pure live mayhem over the years, and we absolutely adore it. Maybe its the crossing of that street that does something to our mindset. Like it provides an energized urge to lose oneself completely in the sounds of whatever fresh Norwegian talent is playing.
The sound at Verkstedet is sick, and just as encompassing and punishing as in the church, just the other way around - if that makes any sense? You can honestly feel and breathe the riffs, sweat and energy coming from the bands. Its like a sauna, steam-filled with the essence of Høstsabbat.
Nothing beats a killer floor show.
And speaking of that:
It’s hard to think of a more fitting first announcement to this very stage than the futuristic avant-gard-ish, hardcore bliss of AKERSBORG.
Its so refreshing with the out-of-the-box-thinking twists and turns that is lurking around every corner. At times frenetic, furious and devastating. A fistful of anger knocking you straight down. The next moment AKERSBORG is acting like its own evil twin: joyful, catchy but also jazzy, with hooks coming at you like Don Johnson in Miami Vice.
There is some kind of twisted 80´s flavor mixed into the spaced out brilliance of AKERSBORG.
Please welcome Akersborg to Høstsabbat 2023 - 10th Anniversary!
