April 8, 2016 – Roadrunner Records group Kvelertak have debuted their official music video for “1985,” the first track to be released off their anticipated new LP NATTESFERD. Directed, written and edited by longtime collaborator Fredrik S. Hana, the video for “1985” follows the tracks narrative of a cold dystopian future.

Hana commented on the video stating, “In my third collaboration with Kvelertak, I wanted to make a music video where the story and characters took the center stage. The video revolves around a micro-community, a four man cult, where a deep and twisted friendship lies beneath it all. They don’t see themselves as a part of the normal society and decide to honor their differences in a unique fellowship. We follow the character’s growing addiction to push limits, and in the end, their incompetence to see any real consequences with their actions. I wanted to get across the fantastic feeling of being a part of something, but also the dangers of not daring to take a stand, to just swim along with the current.”

The follow up album to 2013’s widely acclaimed MEIR, NATTESFERD is heralded by “1985” which debuted last month via NPR who exclaimed, “’1985’ does a lot of what Kvelertak does best — big guitars with huge, grinning riffs out of the Thin Lizzy songbook.”   Pre-orders for NATTESFERD are available today at www.Kvelertak.com with all orders receiving an instant grat download of “1985.” NATTESFERD arrives everywhere May 13^TH (album art below).

Recorded live in Oslo, Norway’s Amper Tone Studio, NATTESFERD is produced by Kvelertak and mixed / engineered by Nick Terry (Lindstrøm, Turbonegro, The Libertines).
