Kvelertak To Release Debut Self-Titled Album In North America
Norwegian new-comers Kvelertak released a self-titled debut album in June of 2010 through Indie Records. The album was produced by Kurt Ballou and mixed by Alan Douches, with artwork by John Baizley and guest appearances by Hoest (Taake), Andreas Tylden (JR Ewing and Altaar), Ivar Nikolaisen (Silver), and Ryan McKenney (Trap Them)
