Through Peaks and Valleys: a playlist by Matti Jalava

We're excited today to bring you another selection of songs which will make for a really variegated and inspiring listen: at times heavy, at times nofuckgiving, at times contemplative.

This all-rounder playlist has been curated for us by none other then axeman Matti Jalava - former member of VORUM; founder of Begravningsentreprenörerna and member of Unpure, who kindly agreed to pick some of his musical choices and share them with us.

It turned out to be a really interesting musical journey that touches upon many twists and turns of classic rock, heavy metal, death metal, punk, ambient and beyond.

Press play here below to dive, swing, jump back and forth through different decades and genres and don't forget to turn the volume to the max!

The tracklist:

Right before embarking next month on their Europe Ablaze tour with Xalpen, Unpure have just announced a change in their line up and they are bringing in their ranks none other than Matti Jalava, whom we all know for his previous guitar work in VORUM and as founder/vocalist and guitarist of heavy rockers Begravningsentreprenörerna!

"I’m stepping down as guitarist in Unpure as I have new duties in life that I really need to focus on", explained Pelle Forsberg (WATAIN) about this change in the band - "And I’m fully convinced that Matti will rip that stage away along with the rest of the guys, FTW!”.

Begravningsentreprenörerna deliver hard rocking goodness with new song

Special treat today for all the appreciators of hard'n'heavy rock music done at its best: Begravningsentreprenörerna has just shared a new song, titled "Svensson Svensson", and as usual it definitely delivers the goods!, kicking off with a groovy and nasty bass, it then ignites in an explosion of tasty riffs, without forgetting a proper dose of solo madness towards the end, making you want to just spin this over and over again! It won't let you sit still no matter what.

So here it is and as always: blast it at maximum volume!

Begravningsentreprenörerna share new track from upcoming EP

Begravningsentreprenörerna made quite the explosive debut when they released their album "Jämna Plågor" in 2018 on Ektro Records, a record which one could be spinning over and over again without ever getting tired of it, with its infectious mix of hard rock and heaviness, even winking at punk rock at times, some real head banging and blastable goodness. Now, they've just unleashed "Kan Inte Säga Nej", a new track from their upcoming EP and it sounds like things are getting even tastier: catchy and heavy riffs, solid groove, it definitely makes you thirsty to hear more!
Blast it loud while we wait for more details about the upcoming EP:
