Wormwood, one of Sweden's most distinctive and internationally acclaimed metal ensembles, return with their new EP Å — a work that further cements their status as one of the most innovative forces in modern extreme metal.
Since forming in Stockholm in 2014, Wormwood have cultivated a sound that is as unmistakable as it is atmospheric. With their characteristic fusion of extreme metal, Scandinavian melancholy, folk‑tinged elements, and cinematic storytelling, the band have crafted a sonic world that both moves and mesmerises. Their music shifts effortlessly between grand, epic scale and brutally grounded intensity — a balance few bands truly master.
With four albums, one EP, a live release, and now the approaching Å, Wormwood have built a catalogue that continually evolves while deepening their artistic identity.
The new EP Å is mixed and mastered by acclaimed producer Sverker Widgren (Wing Studios, Stockholm), whose work highlights Wormwood's ability to combine technical precision with raw emotional force. The result is a sound that is both refined and uncompromising — a journey through melodic intensity, atmospheric depth, and an artistic vision that continues to push boundaries.
Today, Wormwood stand among the most forward‑thinking and compelling bands in Swedish metal. With Å, slated for release on 7 August through Black Lodge Records, they take another confident step in their ongoing evolution — one that promises to captivate both long‑time followers and new listeners worldwide.
