OH, BROTHER

Meet Brothers Of Metal. You already know they don’t play shoegaze

“It’s hard tO be accepted in the food market wearing nothing but loin cloth and battleaxes… that actually happened a couple of weeks ago.”

If the name didn’t give the name away, Brothers Of Metal don’t do subtlety. Dressed like Manowar, named after Manowar and playing songs that sound like a powered-up Manowar, these eight Swedes play pure, ridiculous heavy fucking metal – nothing more, nothing less. This shoot, which took place on the outskirts of their hometown of Falun, was, according to Mats Nilsson, “a great day.”

“The gods were on our side and we were victorious,” he adds.

If you’re wondering, Mats’ official role in the band is ‘Tongue Of The

Gods’. We think that means he’s one of the singers. We hope that means he’s one of the singers…
