Lurer du på hva man bør se på Tons of Rock? Dagsavisen foreslår Metallica og Sklitakling.

21/06/2024

New single by Sklitakling! "Bare en jævel" is a cover of the classic Norwegian hardcore punk band Fader War, originally released on the compilation Ingenting for Norge (possibly Norway's most sought after punk release), and a staple of Sklitakling's live sets too good not to record.

Neste fredag, 21/6, slipper vi vår versjon av denne legendariske låten med Fader War! 🔥

"Sklitakling have created a sound all their own, and their self-titled LP is not just a brilliant Norwegian hardcore punk banger hinting at decapitating patriarchy and societal norms, but a deeply introspective, touching, and expertly produced record that should make many people’s year-end lists."

Very fine Sklitakling review courtesy of DIY Conspiracy!

Sklitakling's album cover is an instant eye-grabber—a high-contrast image of sheer joy that transports you to a sweaty basement show even before you hit play. The bold yellow scribble of the band's name only adds to the in-your-face, old-school hardc

BTB 001 is ten years old today!

The band we were in at the time had recorded some songs, and we had the bright idea that it would be easier to release them ourselves than finding a proper label that was willing to do it. We also decided that if we were gonna learn how to release records, we'd have to release other bands as well. Probably the best bad decision we have ever made.

"This full-length by Norwegian punk band SKLITAKLING is really, really good."

Punk, garage and trash coolness

Great review of Sklitakling in Germany's Ox Fanzine. We don't understand all the words, but we understand that 9/10 is pretty good!

9/10 (!!!) i tyske Ox Fanzine 🤩 Vi er ikke så stødig i tysk, men "Ach, herrlich!" høres i hvert fall veldig herlig ut!

Funfact: Helge Schreiber som har skrevet anmeldelsen, skrev også om vår første EP i 2014, og det var vel den eneste omtalen den fikk!

"Moody punk that finds common ground between hardcore-punk and garage, not unlike The Vicious (or The Wipers if you want to go further down the evolutionary chain)."

Grundig anmeldelse av Sklitakling fra Ballade:

Bandet Sklitakling fant hverandre i nattens mulm og mørke på søken etter trøbbel. Mer enn ti år etter er usammenhengende bråk blitt erstattet med musikk.

13/12/2023

God anmeldelse av Sklitakling i Bergens Tidende: "nerve, kaotisk energi og lyrisk vidd." "Bandet Sklitakling gir noe sårt tiltrengt til byens musikkflora." 4/6 hjerter.

A German Sklitakling review. We think the reviewer says that the songs on the album are even better than the ones on last year's EP, that Sklitakling reminds them of Danish post punk bands and Gun Club, and something about L*D.

Nach einer schon saumäßig appetitanregenden Debüt-EP im letzen Jahr präsentieren Sklitakling aus Bergen, Norwegen eine glatt nochmal stärkere erste LP, auf der sie den verschroben-schrammeligen Charme...

God omtale av Sklitakling hos Musikkavisen Puls! /// Another fine review of Sklitakling (in Norwegian).

Sklitakling er streit pønk, hvis det er noe som heter det. Og bergenserne er gode.
