Henrik Palm premieres "Subway Morgue" from his third solo album

Today, Henrik Palm is offering us a new foretaste of his upcoming album "Nerd Icon"; due out on April 19th, 2024 on Svart Records: it is now possible to stream the song "Subway Morgue"!


A really catchy yet heavy song, Henke once again manages to capture part of the old school vibes (let's say proto-punk/ proto-metal) and blend it with more modern shades, resulting in a fresh sounding, distinctive style of his own.

In our recent interview, Henke told us that he is really happy with the whole production and with the guitar sound on the album, and now that we have heard two songs off "Nerd Icon" we are certainly starting to hear why: the production truly appears to compliment and highlight the sound of the guitar so well, making it full and "punchy".

Henrik Palm's "Nerd Icon" release show in Gothenburg on May 10th, 2024

The venue will host on May 10th, 2024 actually a double release party: additionally to Henke, in fact, also Horndal will celebrate the release of their album "Head Hammer Man", out on April 5th, 2024 on Prosthetic Records.

Tickets can already be found on sale at the club's webshop!

More details also on the official Event page.

Henrik Palm's third solo album, "Nerd Icon", is about to be released on April 19th, 2024 on Svart Records and today, as In Solitude listeners who have been following  former members of the band develop and pursue their musical creativity further and beyond in these last years, we are truly excited to share with you all an interview with Henke about his new music!

We reached out to Henke to ask him a little bit of everything about "Nerd Icon", from the writing process to his own perception of the music, from the title to the cover, some hints at future plans...and more: he treated us to some very interesting insights, which are obviously making us even more curious to hear the album!

It sounds like Henke has returned with a really fantastic sound and this song surely has everything it needs to get stuck in your head, heavy riffing, catchy beat and that finale chanting the title like a mantra...no doubt you are going to be singing it along for a while after you've heard it!

Annonsbladet recently interviewed Henke about his solo album, his live performances and his current activities and it's been confirmed that he has started writing new material for a second solo album, which we are all of course very much looking forward to. Furthermore, in the spring Henke is about to record the third album with Södra Sverige. Some more of his answers about music he's been listening to, how he would describe his album and live performance, as well as about Dalarna's local scene can be read at Annonsbladet.com (text in Swedish) and for all of us non-Swedish speakers a rough Google translation will do and can be read here.
