Oh Hiroshima (SE) // Vaterland // Support: Leonov (NO)

Oh Hiroshima (SE) Support: Leonov (NO) Saturday 13 February 20:00 // 275.- // 20 years and over ———————————— Drawing on the Scandinavian post-rock scene, Swedish band Oh Hiroshima have built a reputation for transforming introspection into a grand, cinematic sound. Over the past ten years, the duo have developed a refined musical language that balances vulnerability with overwhelming emotional force. The band was formed 15 years ago, and today consists of brothers Jakob Hemström (guitar and vocals) and Oskar Nilsson (drums). On stage, the lineup is expanded with additional musicians on keyboards and bass. Like its predecessor “All Things Shining” (2024), the band’s latest release, “And the Dead Treas Give No Shelter”, came out on Pelagic Records. On the album, the Swedes continue their exploration of tension, atmosphere and intensity, this time with an almost authoritative maturity and a new focus on bringing the songs to life in a live setting. ——————— Ever since forming in 2010, LEONOV have found inspiration for their ethereal doomgaze/post-metal in the existential—the sound of a world collapsing. Their latest release, the EP “Shape of Ash”, came out on Pelagic Records in 2025 and shows the band at their most contrasting, yet beautifully cohesive and emotionally explosive. On stage, the contrasts come together under Leonov’s steady direction. Dreamlike guitars and floating atmospheres meet velvety, cold vocals over a heavy, driving rhythm. The beautiful soundscape can make nature feel especially close, but, as in nature, rawness lurks just beneath the surface when you least expect it. ------------------ Ticketmaster.no Vaterlandoslo.no
