Artist: Thorr's Hammer Album: Dommedagsnatt Released: 1996 Country: USA Genre: Doom metal
Track list:
Norge
Troll
Dommedagsnatt
Mellom Galgene
"Denne natten var dommedagsnatten, den siste natten de stolte guder og de faele beist i dette liv skulle se..."
Before Seattle musicians Greg Anderson and Stephen O'Malley formed their iconic drone band Sunn O))), they played in the very short lived death/doom metal group Thorr's Hammer. Helmed by Norwegian exchange student Runnhild Gammelsæter on vocals (who produced some of the most guttural, harsh singing to ever come out of a human larynx), the group was together for only six weeks before its dissolution upon Runnhild's return to Norway. During those six weeks they managed to create the punishingly heavy, doomy EP Dommedagsnatt (meaning "doomsday night" in Norwegian) with a lasting impact despite the band's short time together.
Anderson and O'Malley went on the form the sludge/doom band Burning Witch shortly after the breakup of Thorr's Hammer. Gammelsæter, on the other hand, obtained a PhD in cell biology though is still somewhat involved in the metal scene, contributing guest vocals on Sunn O)))'s 2003 album White1 as well as other projects.
Favorite tracks: Norge, Mellom Galgene

THE BIRTH OF SOUTHERN LORD RECORDINGS IN ONE PHOTO -- A HISTORY OF DOOM!
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on a group shot of American-Norwegian death/DOOM metal band THORR'S HAMMER, left to right: Greg Anderson, Stephen O'Malley, & Runhild Gammelsæter, photographed in London, UK, c. 1998, New Years Day.
SUNN O))) (ANCIENT) HISTORY LESSON #1: Circa 1995 SUNN O))) axe-men Greg "The Lord" Anderson & Stephen O'Malley, a.k.a., "SOMA," convened for the very first time in a basement located in Ballard, Washington. The grimm result of those primitive, prehistoric sessions ultimately became their first ever group: THORR'S HAMMER! They were joined by 18-year-old Norwegian native: Runhild Gammelsæter on vokills and Jamie "Boggy" Sykes on war-drums. Dommedagsnatt is the only studio recording the band made."

Will Goldie-Galloway vs. Jamie “Thorr” Mellers: Lean, handsome Mellers is 29; Goldie-Galloway is 26. Both men are 6–0, but Mellers’ 6 wins have come against opponents with a combined record of 15-229-13. Mellers starts out strong, but halfway through round one, Goldie-Galloway batters the taller man with 25 unanswered blows to the head and body. Mellers is too stunned to defend himself, and he collapses under the pressure. He manages to beat the count, but Goldie-Galloway hammers “Thorr” with 11 more unanswered blows, sending the hapless Mellers to the canvas again, where the referee waves off the fight. In less than one round, Goldie-Galloway has ripped the title from Mellers, derailed his career, humiliated him, and exposed him for the fraud he is.

Letting the cat out of the bag.
We are stoked to reveal Jamie Sykes (legendary drummer of Burning Witch and Thorr's Hammer) is a part of DEATHSTENCH from this point forward.

Circa 1995: Thorrs Hammer was a short-lived doom/death metal band from Seattle, Washington, USA. The group consisted of Runhild Gammelsæter, a Norwegian exchange student living in the US, on vocals, guitarists Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson, bassist James Hale, and drummer Jamie Sykes. The band played 2 shows and recorded “Dommedagsnatt” before splitting, with Runhild opting to concentrate on her education (she now has a Ph.D.!) while O’Malley, Anderson, and Sykes went on to form Burning Witch. O’Malley and Anderson also perform as Sunn O))). “ #thorrshammer #dommedagsnatt #southernlord #metal #doom #doommetal #brotherhood #sunno #burningwitche #vinyl #vinyladdict #vinyllover #vinylmusic #vinylmeplease #vinylobsessed #vinylshop #vinylporn #vinylrecord #vinylwrap #vinyllovers #vinyligclub #vinyldecals #grindpromotionrecords (presso Grindpromotion Records Hq) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp2iTPjoCVM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
