Blackened hardcore quintet Throwe annonces debut album ‘Forfald’ and releases first single and video

The Copenhagen black metallic hardcore band THROWE say it as it is and how they they see it. On the debut album ‘Forfald’ (‘Decay’ in Danish), the band communicate the personal struggle of life, which all humans experience, through a straight forward blackened hardcore insisting on honesty and the communion, that exactly this music has to offer. ‘Forfald’ will be released on April 29th and today, the band shares the album’s first single ‘Aerosol Jesus’ alongside an energetic performance video. Lead singer Kim Rock elaborates on the song:

“‘Aerosol Jesus’ is about the paradox in the eternal search for the meaning of life, that it in itself becomes a religion and omnipotent for the basis of one's own existence, that one has ultimately forgotten to live a life and accept the premises of life.”

THROWE was formed at the end of 2018 with base in Copenhagen, while conjuring an international constellation of members from England, Holland, Argentina and Denmark. After THROWE’s formation, the band released three singles with accompanying videos, played a string of shows and since then, they have been working on new material

Now, THROWE has completed the debut album ‘Forfald’ consisting of seven tracks running 28 minutes all in all. The music is hard hitting blackened hardcore which excels in its ultra heavy and direct aesthetics perfectly molded for the band’s high energy live performances.

THROWE is an old-English term that means “suffocating death” - a simple word, most people can remember, and as such, THROWE prefers to speak directly to its audience in both music and lyrics. A main theme with THROWE is the struggle of life, which we all fight, while we inevitably approach our demise within a long movement of decay - the human decay. The album lyrics written in both English and Danish springs from behavioral psychology - why we act, as we do.

The struggle in life, before death concludes it, is a circumstance, which unites us as humans despite our differences. In the same way, music and not least hardcore with its eternal theme of human struggle can unite us beyond nationalities and other differing parameters. In its confrontation with the challenges of life and death, man’s inadequacy and decay, music can create strength, community and determination, and THROWE and ‘Forfald’ is a shining example of exactly this.

THROWE’s debut album ‘Forfald’ is produced by the band themselves, recorded by Patrick Fragtrup and guitarist Mads Østergaard, mixed and mastered by Jacob Bredahl with artwork from drummer Mike Simpson. The album is released digitally on the band's own imprint Deathbird Records and the vinyl version will be out later in 2022 as a co-release between Heartland Records (DK), Virkelighedsfjern (DK), Vinyltrolden (DK), Maniyax Records (DE), Portagonist Music (US) and Drown Within Records (IT).
