Svärd - Project Of Ahab And In Mourning Members Releasing EP


Svärd is the band that features members of Ahab and In Mourning. Initially, they've got together in 2017 to start a new project. Tim Nedergård and Björn Pettersson (both In Mourning) teamed up with their former bandmate Pierre Stam and drummer Cornelius Althammer of German doomsters Ahab. After extensive jam sessions in Sweden, the collective recorded a first EP and have just signed a worldwide deal with Argonauta Records. Entitled The Rift, Svärd's debut contains 5 tracks, stomping metal tracks combined with psychedelic elements. Set for a digital release on July 3rd 2020 with Vinyl formats to follow, The Rift was mixed and mastered by Jonas Kjellgren. Svärd are currently working on a full-length album, which will see the light of day in the not so distant future.

"Svärd are super happy to hereby inform the world that from now on, those handsome Italian stallions at Argonauta Records will be swinging the swords alongside with us!" the band comments.

Argonauta Records owner, Gero Lucisano, adds: "During these crap months of lockdown, I've been lucky enough to intercept a bunch of demo songs from a band I was not aware of. They totally blew me away. It is that type of Heavy Metal that really kicks hard and rocks as hell! Turned out the line-up had a sort of pedigree formed by members of Ahab and In Mourning. So, also thanks to our promoter Mona of ALL NOIR, who is also working with Ahab for many years, everything was quite easy to make all parties happy and super enthusiast to start out together."
