As one of the most unique bands coming out of Norway, Virus has built themselves a big following in both the metal and rock scene throughout the world. From the debut album, “Carheart”, in 2003, they’ve developed their otherworldly style for over a decade. In 2016, Virus debuts on Karisma Records with their 4th album called “Memento Collider”, set to be released on June 4th.
.
They now return with their original 3-piece core, consisting of Carl-Michael “Czral” Eide (guitars, vocals), Petter “Plenum” Berntsen (bass) and Einar “Einz” Sjursø (drums). “Memento Collider” continues to develop the Virus sound, with their unusual flowing bass lines, experimental riffs and groovy rhythms. The sound is still very much experimental and progressive in the true meaning of that word, but at the same time catchy and melodic. As always, they have some guests on the album, and this time Voivod guitarist Dan Mongrain has added a solo.

“Memento Collider” is a grand return for Virus, where they again show the true essence of pioneering experimental rock!
