Hailing from Bergen, Norway, Slomosa channels their surroundings into a signature hybrid of stoner rock riffage, grungy hooks, and a concentrated punk punch. The group - Ben Berdous (vocals, guitar), Marie Moe (vocals, bass), Tor Erik Bye (guitar), and Jard Hole (drums) - perfects this sound on their second full-length offering and MNRK Heavy debut LP, Tundra Rock. ‘Tundra Rock’ is ‘Desert Rock’ in our terms,” says Berdous. “A desert doesn’t have to be warm, the tundra is our desert. The grandiosity of nature is evident in the songs.” Slomosa began nearly ten years ago as a low-pressure project among friends. Influenced by bands like Queens of the Stone Age, Nirvana, Alice In Chains, and Soundgarden, the group’s 2020 self-titled debut racked up over 10 million streams on tracks such as “Kevin,” “In My Mind’s Desert,” “There Is Nothing New Under The Sun,” and “Horses.” In 2024, they returned to the studio with producer Erik Marinius to record Tundra Rock, expanding on the foundation of their first album. Metal Hammer (UK) praised “Slomosa’s second outing is a blistering expansion to the Norwegians’ desert rock sound […] Tundra Rock is the real deal!” Their second album continued a thunderous stride by winning the Rock category at Spellemannprisen, Norway’s most prestigious annual music award, often referred to as the "Norwegian Grammys”. Meanwhile, they played to packed crowds across Europe, scorching the stages of Alcatraz Open Air, Sweden Rock Festival and Hellfest, alongside receiving invitations to tour with the likes of Alkaline Trio, Kadavar, Helmet, and even supporting Mastodon on select dates in 2025. Key singles “Cabin Fever,” “Rice,” and “Battling Guns” reflect the band’s growth. “Battling Guns,” rooted in Berdous’s anti-war stance, is “in the simplest sense, an anti-war, anti-fascist track.” Songs like “MJ,” “Monomann,” and the closing track “Dune” further explore heavier grooves, grunge influences, and hypnotic rhythm. “If you listen to this, I just hope you feel something,” says Berdous. “Tundra Rock is here to stay.” In the end, Slomosa welcomes everyone into their world on Tundra Rock
