Newly formed Norwegian instrumental trio Grant The Sun has signed to Mas-Kina Recordings and announced the release of a self-titled debut album, due out on August 11th. Hear the album’s leading single “fru blodøks” below.

Grant The Sun was born when founding members of Insense, Håvard Sveberg, and Martin Rygge (who also handles guitars in grindcore group Beaten To Death) decided it was time to get together and make music again after more than ten years apart.

Adding childhood friend and guitar virtuoso Markus Lillehaug Johnsen to the line-up, the three recorded six songs live at Dugout Productions in Uppsala, Sweden with producer and long-time friend Danne Bergstrand.
