Born in the forests of Vigeland, Norway, viseMènn are a rock quartet who are as brooding as they are introspective. Comprised of guitarist Lars Olav Mangelrød, Sølve Eggebø on keyboards, drummer Mangar Lofthus, and Helge Corneliussen up front on bass and vocals; videos featuring their music have racked up millions of views on YouTube, and they have toured extensively in Canada and the U.K., playing venues as prestigious as Liverpool’s esteemed Cavern Club.
viseMènn’s debut album “You Are” is a slice of loud, atmospheric “Philosopher Rock”, in the tradition of bands like Radiohead and Mew. The songs inside are punctuated by pounding drums, plaintive vocals and shimmery guitars, with lyrics that are dark and profound in a deeply European way. And when it comes to Helge’s vocals, Scallywag magazine said it best when they compared them to “a young Bono howling at the moon in Slane Castle.”
