Hvalross is a four piece hard rocking band, not from Norway as the name would suggest, but from the South of the Netherlands. The band saw first light in the spring of 2018, but the members have been rocking since they were teenagers in the late eighties. Hvalross wants to honour these times. The hard rock and heavy metal from the seventies and the eighties therefore has a strong base in their sound and lyrics, supplemented with influences from contemporary stoner and heavy rock music. It is said that you can hear influences from Mastodon, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden. Expect the classic compact four-piece rock band, in a set up just like our heroes Black Sabbath, with melodic classic hard rock vocals over a rhythmic band. Heavy and monstrous like a walrus combined with an energetic stage performance.

In October 2020 Hvalross released their debut album 'Cold Dark Rain' on the regular streaming platforms. Because of the bands sentiments for the good old eighties, it is also released on 'cold rain' coloured vinyl. The album was well received and Hvalross got representation by Hard Life Promotion regarding all press matters. Sadly, Covid did not make it possible to promote the album live and made original drummer Tristan decide to quit the band in 2021. Hvalross quickly got back in battle formation with our good friend and drummer Marc. Now it is time to unleash new music on the world, starting with the new single "RUNNING THE GAUNTLET"!!!

This track features Katri Hiovain-Asikainen from the Numento .  LISTEN Black Within on streaming services: https://push.fm/fl/bth-black   "Black Within is one of the last songs written for the album. The process of writing it was quite easy, I wrote it in one day. Sometimes it's easy to write a song when you have a clear vision and you don't have to spend weeks or months on it. The song is one of the most atmospheric on the album, even a bit "ballad-like". Already during the composition phase I knew that I had to have a female vocalist for this song and I had a clear candidate right away; Katri Hiovain-Asikainen from the Numento band. Luckily, Katri agreed immediately,...
