Onsloow

Onsloows rousing and dreamy powerpop-sound got this undercurrent of pop punk flair, with gritty edge on the guitars that hides behind fun and pop friendly choruses. All combined with the sweet and feminine energy of the charming, inviting and confident lead vocal work of Johanne Rimul.

Their first single “Overthinking” was launched to rave reviews in May 2021. British music magazine Under the Radar wrote:

“As a debut single and a way of saying hello

to the world, this is nothing short of spectacular”.

One month later, second single “A Good Day to Forget” ended up with a five out of six review in Norway’s biggest newspaper VG. The song is currently on heavy rotation on NRK P13, Norway’s equivalent to BBC 6.

Third single “Being With You” showed a band speeding up the bpm with ferocious drumming, but not leaving behind the hooks, handclaps and pop sensibilities from their previous singles. The positive energy of the song goes hand in glove with the life-affirming lyrics about being truly in love!

Now their debut album is ready for launch!

A 8 track galore with driving melodic guitars and scorching drums that meets the catchy stanzas from vocalist and front woman Johanne Rimul. All bound in a soundscape that unites the narrow and the commercial. Among the fans one finds a symbiosis of aging parents of young children who only long for what once were, and young hipsters who have once again embraced the aesthetics and charm of the 90s.

Onsloow from Trondheim/Norway is an indie rock band with powerpop themes, but also find themselves flirting with post rock, shoegaze and punk rock in an inviting format where the catchy singalongs never is far away.

The production of Marius Ergo (Lukestar, Truls and The Trees, Insomniac Bears) wrap it together in a warm and intuitive way. Sometimes clean, sometimes chaotic, but always well developed with energy and momentum, which seizes the listener with its motion and drags them along for the ride.
