US Heavy Voyagers THORGRIM announce their signing with Octopus Rising / Argonauta Records. New album to be released later in the year.
Hailing from Sheboygan, Wisconsin, Thorgrim deliver a fierce and unfiltered blend of doom, punk and black metal atmospheres, forging a raw and unpolished sound rooted in emotion, instinct and real life experience. Formed in 2023, the band was born from the need to create music that feels honest, stripped down and alive, far from artificial production and predictable structures.
Thorgrim are built on the chemistry between Mike on guitar and main songwriting duties, Tom on bass and Colton on drums, with all members contributing to composition and lyrics. Their sonic identity moves within doom and sludge territory, infused with punk urgency and a bleak edge that reflects both their environment and personal struggles.
Since their formation, Thorgrim have already released two demos, the first a seven track collection in 2023 and a second expansive eighteen track recording produced with Jeff Hinnendal at Hinnendal Studios in Green Bay, Wisconsin, establishing the band as a visceral and uncompromising presence in the US underground scene.
To celebrate the signing, Thorgrim are now releasing their first official single with Octopus Rising, titled “The Movies”, available here: https://song.link/thorgrim_tm
The track introduces the band’s harsh yet human approach, where imperfections become part of the language and every note is played with intention rather than polish. On "The Movies", vocals are performed by Mayan, a guest singer invited by the band for two songs. While not an official member of Thorgrim, his contribution adds a distinctive emotional layer to the song, enhancing the raw and direct impact of the band’s sound.
With Thorgrim joining the Octopus Rising roster, Argonauta Records continues to expand its vision of heavy music beyond borders, embracing artists who put authenticity, emotion and sonic weight at the center of their art.
