What sub genre of metal are you? Kvelertak: Yes.

The song is about Even Olsen Tagholdt(EOT) borned at Tagholdt in Lund 1807, and died in 1859, and burried 158 years later. EOT gets into a poor enviroment and is sentenced to slavery after theft, after this he makes his way to Stavanger. EOT makes contact with his last daughter, as the other had died early, he meets a friend of her named Hanna who he gets a relationship with. She works for a wealthy farmer named Byberg in Stavanger, who is also "Haugean": A Pietistic state church reform movement intended to bring new life and vitality into the Church of Norway which had been often characterized by formalism and lethargy. The movement emphasized personal diligence, enterprise and frugality. Byberg spends very little of his wealth and Hanna is both freezing and starving at his place. EOT and Hanna decided to steal his wealth, but EOT also decide to kill him. 25. februar 1854 EOT beat Byberg head with a hammer, but he doesnt die right away, so EOT hangs him and makes it look like suicide. They dream of starting over in America, and EOT despirately tries to find a way. The police discovers that Byberg did not kill himself and start an investigation and hunt for the two. Hanna is caught first and keep her silenve for a long time before breaking, later EOT is caught. EOT is sentenced to death in Stavanger, but the Supreme Court rules him to lifetime slavery instead. Hanna is sent to Kristiansand, EOT is first at Bergenshus, and then Akershus where he is put into the group completely without rights. EOT dies 7. oktober 1859, destroyed, worn out and pneumonia takes him out. For unkown reasons his body finds its way to Stavanger Museum where citizens have judged his remains until 2019. The Council of Ethics Museum and the church decides in 2019 to finally bury him at Moi in Lund(not far from where he was borned). "We shall judge him no more. He got his judgment and sentenced it in the worst possible way. It is finished" - Museum Statement. Around 40 people meet up to his funeral, Ivar Nikolaisen is home with his parents when he hears the bells and start investigating EOTs story. "Fanden ta dette hull"/ "F this hole" was found carved in a cell where EOT served.

Epic sound for an epic song. Easily amongst the best by Kvelertak. Stay metal. 🤘😝🤘

In fact, that mix, their distinguished "Kevlertak sound" as you called it, is the exact reason I got into them in the first place. So, sorry if I've been "unthinkingly disrespectful" to anyone with my lighthearted jest at a band that I am a huge fan of ever since their very first album.

It's just different taste for music. My comment was more a reaction to a frustration that I love the first two albums of Kvelertak and the new stuff it's just not my cup of tea. I hear already the two songs that they released, and it doesn't do it for me, was boring.
