Vallmo will see release on vinyl and digital formats via Suicide Records in cooperation with DalaPop on March 27. Preorders are available at suiciderecordsswe.bandcamp.com.

Already captivating the ears of critics both stateside and abroad, Original Rock calls Vallmo a, "delightfully dark and intricate release." 

Overdrive Magazine crowns it, "the ultimate psychedelic desert doom experience, a sunburnt evening adventure through the summer heat via Scandinavia," while The Obelisk elaborates, "its sound is a deeply varied wash of progressive heavy post-rock atmospherics, moody soul-searching melodicism, and weighted groove. Lyrics switch back and forth between Swedish and English depending on the song... and with vocal duties shared among multiple members between frontwoman Lea Amling Alazam and guitarists Andreas Baier and Staffan Winroth, there's an obvious commitment to a varied approach that comes through on Vallmo's eight tracks/fifty-one minutes and, in kind with the depth of the mix and the richness of tones and melodies, makes the album an all-the-more-satisfying listening experience."

BESVÄRJELSEN - Swedish for "conjuring" - was forged in 2014. 

Though clearly rooted in the realms of doom, within their engulfing sound lies traces of progressive metal, punk, folk and classic rock 'n' roll all carefully weaved together resulting in a sound that is at once crushingly heavy and alluringly sophisticated. 

The band released their debut EP "Villfarelser" in 2015 which was followed by 2016's "ExilEP." 

Both releases, though self-financed and released with little outside promotion, were well-received by Swedish media and even found airplay on Swedish National Radio.

Much of 2017 found BESVÄRJELSEN composing the the audio alchemy found on their first full-length studio offering "Vallmo" (Swedish for "poppy"). 

"Vallmo" more than ever showcases the band's enormous potential, the eight-track offering seamlessly wandering from crushing doom riffs to catchy vocals and melodies, deep lyrical content, and storming drum work, all topped by stunning guitar solos and, for the first time since the band's formation, songs in English as well as their native Swedish.

BESVÄRJELSEN's Vallmo was captured at Studio Glashuset and Midlake Studios by guitarist/vocalist Andreas Baier and comes sheathed in the cover art of Blodpest with design by drummer Erik Bäckwall.
