Planet Mastergod released their 3rd album, From Under Them Ashes, on May 8 2015 and was mixed by Magnus Lindberg from the legendary band Cult Of Luna.

The band will now release their 4th full-length album, There Are Snakes In These Woods. The album will be available on vinyl and all key streaming services August 14, 2019.

With sources of inspiration such as Isis, Tool, Neurosis and Cult Of Luna, Planet Mastergod focuses on songs with a dark and melancholy expression. You get the melancholy of the new wave area, the post-rock atmosphere and the harshness  of hard rock and metal, which together makes the music heavy, honest and at times atmospheric.

Planet Mastergod is based in the dark industrial city of Halden in Norway, and saw the light of day in 2004. The band has a vinyl single, an EP and three full-lengths behind it, all released on True Medium Records. Planet Mastergod has been a part of Halden´s unique music scene for many years and was, among other things booked at Tons Of Rock 2015 together with bands like Testament, Gojira, Opeth and In Flames.

Gonna put out home made pieces here now and then

Sindre is a Norwegian singer-songwriter. Located in the middle of the big cities of Oslo and Gothenburg, he works on writing the one song that lifts the music.

From his writing cabin close to his family's demands and duties, Sindre has recorded and produced two albums, five EPs and several singles. Sindre is now working on his trilogy Lengsel(Longing), Lidelse(Suffering)& Levende(The Living). A journey through the various stages of life up to now. Fortunately, we end up with the living being the best.

Sindre about the trilogy:

"When one has lived for a while, some aspects emerges. This is how it is for me, anyways. Longing and suffering goes hand in hand. Life alternates between being joyful and a struggle. I realize that this alternation never ends. I have to find what makes life come alive. Walking around asleep is not an option"

Sindre has handled bass, guitar and vocals in various projects over the years. There are many highlights. Among other things, when the stoner rock band Planet Mastergod opened for El Caco at Rockefeller, then TYST! opened for Dia Psalma and deLillos, and were among the last bands to play concert on Elm Street (deeply missed).

A-ha left its mark on Sindre in the early years, by then the Beatles were already well established as musical role models. He attended as a toddler a concert with Åge Aleksandersen in Namsos cinema. Combined with notorious listening to Bruce and E-street's live 75-85, the desire to play guitar and sing in a band was firmly planted. Later, U2 grabbed a hold with Under a Blood Red Sky, the Cure turned teenage angst up to almost unbearable heights and REM brought it all into balance. At the same time, Pink Floyd lurked in the back as relics from the past.

Now Sindre has put together a steady band that will accompany his songs, as well as selected cover songs, at concerts during 2024. They promise emotions and a good atmosphere. Singles will be released every month until the album Lidelse is released on 19 April and Levende is recorded as we speak.

Sindre also plays guitar and sings in the Oslo based band SVIIR, which will release an EP in February 2024 and perform a number of concerts around the Norway.

I used to think that music wasn’t everyone’s everything.
Turns out I was wrong.
Thank goodness. 🫶🫶🫶
