After nearly a decade of silence, Swedish sludge/doom metal heavyweights Kongh return with their long-awaited fourth full-length album, »Dissolved In Time«, out on September 25, 2026 via Trust No One Recordings.

Between 2007 and 2013, Kongh released three critically acclaimed albums that established the band as one of Sweden’s most distinctive voices in heavy music. Extensive touring alongside acts such as Meshuggah and YOB earned the band a devoted international following before entering an extended hiatus.

Now, Kongh re-emerge with a record that does not seek to recreate the past, but rather continues and sharpens it. Written from ideas accumulated over the last decade and developed during six months of intensive work, »Dissolved In Time« expands upon the band’s trademark blend of crushing heaviness, vast atmosphere and hypnotic repetition, while incorporating electronics, layered textures and some of the most ambitious compositions in the band’s history.

The album was written and recorded under the direction of founding member David Johansson, who performed guitars, bass, electronics, and lead vocals, while also handling the mixing process. Drawing on years of experience gained both within Kongh and through his time as a touring guitarist for Cult Of Luna between 2013 and 2019, Johansson shaped a record that is both deeply personal and structurally expansive.

Furthermore, »Dissolved In Time« features contributions from several key figures in the Scandinavian heavy music scene, including three of Johansson’s former bandmates from Cult Of Luna. Christian Augustin performed drums and engineered the vocal sessions, while Kristian Karlsson engineered and mixed the drum recordings. The album was mastered by Magnus Lindberg, who also worked on Kongh’s 2013 release, reinforcing a sense of continuity in sound and vision. Additional backing vocals are provided by Jörgen Sandström, known for his work with Grave, Entombed, and many other seminal acts.

»Dissolved In Time« is released September 25 via Trust No One Recordings on CD, LP + digital formats and is now available for pre-order here: PHYSICAL | DIGITAL

In addition, Kongh have announced their very first show in ten years, taking place on January 30, 2027 in Stockholm, Sweden. Joining for the evening are label-mates and old-time friends Switchblade and Speglas. Tickets are on sale HERE.
