Hammok hail from Oslo, where they kick up a brisk and invigorating racket that reminds me of Euro post-hardcore acts like Refused and Birds In Row, or even those old Queens Of The Stone Age tracks with Nick Oliveri on lead vocals., first reported by Stereogum.
Pitchfork News added that the Norway post-hardcore band will release When Does This Place Become Our Scene this summer.

What This Means Locally
Oslo’s Hammok, whose energetic post-hardcore sound echoes Queens of the Stone Age’s rawest moments, is set to release their new album on Sargent House. With QOTSA’s own desert-tinged rock resonating deeply across the Inland Empire and Coachella Valley, fans of that powerful, riff-driven sound will find plenty to dig into.
