Southern metallers Black Swamp Water release today their new single and video Bitter Harvest, ahead of their second album Distant Thunder, which will be out in August 24th through Mighty Music.
Singer, Bjørn Bølling Nyholm, says: “We chose «Bitter Harvest» as the first single for «Distant Thunder» because we believe it represents us as a band in the best possible way – it has a catchy and bluesy main riff, a strong southern vibe, and memorable hooks both melodically and lyrically – and the video shows both the energy that the song sparks in us as well as the main theme of it”.
Black Swamp Water features Kim Langkjær Jensen, former drummer of death metal bands Dawn of Demise, Illdisposed and Koldborn. Other than Kim, the band consists of singer Bjørn Bølling Nyholm, bass player Jeppe Birch Friis, and the two guitarists Jan Geert and Martin Lykke Hansen.
Black Swamp Water is old school hard rock and heavy metal with obvious references to the bands like Black Sabbath, Ozzy and Corrosion Of Conformity with a howdy to the southern rock scene.
The Tue Madsen produced- & mixed debut album «Chapter One» from 2016 gave the band a reputation as a highly energetic live act with great reviews and airplays to follow on both MyRock and National Danish Radio.
Two years after the debut album Black Swamp Water is now ready to release their second album «Distant Thunder» to the world through Mighty Music on August 24th.
