When somewhere the gates of hell are flung open with a screech and an endless stream of lava, smoke, and distorted guitars pours out, then, dear brothers and sisters of well-crafted noise, HÅNDGEMENG has taken the stage. These five lost souls from Oslo, Norway – born in the flames of the old Sabbath school and baptized in the dirty beer of a Motörhead gig – deliver with "Satanic Panic Attack" a slab of an album straight from the smoke-drenched heart of a '70s hard rock nightmare.
Right from the opener "The Cauldron Born," you’re hurled through a doomy sludge firestorm of roaring guitars and furious shouts – wild, raw, and utterly irresistible. "Medieval Knievel" steamrolls everything in the best stoner fashion, while "Down Below" serves up a dark blues mass straight from the devil’s own belly.
Håndgemeng perfect Doom'n'Roll with the dirty energy of Motörhead, the madness of Kvelertak, and the unholy groove of vintage Sabbath records. Every song is a bastard child of punk, rock, and doom – wild, heavy, divine.
Satanic Panic Attack isn’t just a record; it’s a full-throttle witch ritual. A hellride for everyone who wants their rock dusty, loud, and fiercely alive.
In a world that reeks of plastic pop, Håndgemeng comes roaring out of Norway like a burning meteor of doom, sweat, and infernal madness. Satanic Panic Attack is the soundtrack for all lost souls who still know what real rock tastes like: dirty, heavy, and dangerous.
An absolute must!
