Honningbarna are a Norwegian band whose musical style has
been likened to bands such as The Bronx, The Hives and Fucked Up. ‘Verden En
Enkel’ is their latest album which has been produced by Pelle Gunnerfeldt, who
has worked with Refused and The Hives.
The first track, titled ‘Dodtid’ has a strong guitar riff
and is full of energy right from the beginning. ‘Ikke La Deg Rive Med’ is a short
but fast-paced song, further emphasising the passion and energy emerging from
Honningbarna. ‘Velkommen Tilbake’ features very impressive guitaring and strong
shouting vocals. The fourth track, ‘Tynn Is’ has a slower pace than the
previous track, but still includes the energy which arises from Edvard Valberg’s
vocals. ‘Fritt Ord Fritt Fram’ features fast-paced vocals and a catchy guitar
riff, making it one of the tracks that stand out the most on ‘Verden En Enkel’.
The technical guitaring and strong bass line in ‘God Jul Jesus’ proves that the
members of Honningbarna are all very skilled and talented musicians. ‘Fuck
Kunst (Dans Dans)’ is Honningbarna’s latest single and it’s easy to hear why it
is so popular: the guitar solo is incredible and the lyrics are very catchy. The
opening guitar-playing in ‘Offerdans’ is amazing, which continues throughout
both the song and the whole album. ‘Ned’ is a song which you could easily
imagine Honningbarna playing live due to the great guitaring and the energy which
comes from Edvard’s vocals. The opening bass line in ‘Si Nei’ is very strong
and the breakdown near the end of the song is very impressive. ‘Verden Er Enkel’
is another passionate song where the vocals really stand out on the track,
alongside yet another impressive guitar solo. The final track on the album is ‘Gi
Oss Kick’, which is a strong closing track as it is still full of energy and
fast-paced vocals.
To say that Honningbarna are unique would be a huge
understatement, but if you’re into Norwegian music which is full of energy and
passion, then they are definitely a band that you need to listen to.
