TUSMØRKE + Brain Burn

🎶 TUSMØRKE

Tusmørke, a band from Oslo, delivers groovy freak rock for fans of prog, psych, folk, heavy, and world music. The band was formed in 1994 and has released 15 albums since 2012, performing concerts throughout Norway and parts of Europe. They have witnessed the world change greatly while remaining essentially unchanged themselves. Exploring a landscape filled with Tolkien, fantasy, sci-fi, medieval themes, Woodstock vibes, psychedelia, Freak Brothers, occultism, mysticism, batik, and homespun aesthetics, Tusmørke takes listeners on a timeless journey—forever the 70s, but which 70s? 70 BC or 2070 AD?

Their music is often described as an experimental blend, drawing influences from pioneers like Gong and Caravan, Krautrock legends such as CAN and Amon Duul II, and acid-infused folk musicians like The Incredible String Band, alongside Nordic folk traditions. Additionally, elements from funk, disco, children's music, and various subgenres of metal including black metal, doom metal, and pagan/folk metal, converge in their unique sound. Described as a "dark cauldron of magical, musical drinks," Tusmørke's music embodies an atmosphere that is both mysterious and otherworldly, with intricate arrangements, unconventional song structures, and a rich tapestry of instruments and sounds.

Tusmørke has previously performed in Sweden at events including Electric Moon Fest V (2018), Fryk Out (2022), The Abyss (2023), Psykstämman (2023), and Muskelrock (2025).

🔥 BRAIN BURN

Brain Burn (from Gothenburg) is a band known for their utterly irresponsible knuttekraut, representing Gothenburg's most uncompromising sound right now. Their sound is described as the pulse of a city simmering beneath the surface, featuring vocals that are threatening and guitars that are an energetic assault. Their music resonates with a fiery blend reminiscent of Wendy O Williams and Motörhead.

Born in a chopper garage during a dark, wet night in Ringön a year ago, Brain Burn emerges from influences of bands like Uran GBG, Exorcist GBG, and Morrhår. Rising from the darkest corners of Ringön, this is music that makes no apologies — it's dirty, adrenaline-fueled knuttekraut that hits both the chest and spine when experienced live.
