Åskväder is following the release of their second album »Fenix« from 2022, which was praised by Rock Hard, Gaffa, This Is Rock, to name a few, the group returns with a digital EP.

Says the band: “Today we release an EP »Electric Tide«. This is a digital release. No physical release right now. Give us your thoughts and spin it loud here!”

Electrifying Swedish rockers Åskväder makes thunder and lightning through music. Well balanced seasoning to the sound of the 90s Scandinavian rock scene mixed up with smoking hot riffs drenched in bluesy licks and catchy refrains. Adding thundering drum and bass groove with a topping consisting of elaborate vocal harmonies Åskväder is Swedish and can be translated into “Thunderstorm”. That says it all. No fuss, just straight Rock n Roll. While capturing some of the influences from the legends of our time such as The Hellacopters and Turbonegro Åskväder manages to stay in their own lane, creating their own style of rock for a new decade.

Hailing from the west coast of Sweden, Åskväder released their debut EP »Quick Fixes« in 2018. In 2020 the band joined forces with The Sign Records for the release of their debut, self-titled studio album. In 2022 Åskväder returned with their second full-length effort, »Fenix«. In the fall of 2023, an EP called »Electric Tide« will be released and in 2024 a third full-length effort together with The Sign Records is in the works. Through the years Åskväder has toured Scandinavia, Spain and Germany heavily and is a live act that leaves no one untouched.

Åskväder was formed in 2018 and consists today of Lucas Monryd on bass guitar, Tim Ferm on drums, Robin Bengtsson on lead vocals and guitar and Martin Gut on lead guitar. Look out for Åskväder who will release their third album via The Sign Records during 2024.
