The
previous album «Post-Modern Dark Age» came in the autumn of 2019 and
the band's concert activities to promote the album in 2020 were
interrupted and a performance during Trondheim Calling in 2020 was the
band's last concert before everything closed down. In 2021, there were
signs of life again from Freedumb and an alternative EP version of the
debut album The Freedumb Curse (2010) was released in a limited edition
on 12 »vinyl with a silkscreen cover. In September 2021, "Get Away" came
as the first single from the upcoming album "Social Hangover" and the
song received an overwhelming reception internationally in the
alternative rock / punk / metal press.
Freedumb
was started by Torstein Magnus Eriksen (Norsk Råkk, Friksjon), Ole
Vanem (Knuste Ruter) and Thomas Walland Hansen (The Supervisors) in the
winter of 2003 in Moss . In 2010, "The Freedumb Curse" came out on
Tonehjulet Kräftpest, and Freedumb was selected for PYRO on NRK's rating
"Top 10 most promising bands in 2010". The following year, guitarist
Thomas Walland Hansen quit and Kim Trøbråten (Fork) joined. In 2016, the
follow-up album "Feeding The Tapeworm" was released on Tonehjulet
Kräftpest and Freedumb went on heir most comprehensive Norwegian tour.
At the end of the tour, Ole Vanem throws in the drumsticks and in the
winter of 2017, Petter Cindahl (Bits Between / Your Epitaph) became the
new drummer in Freedumb.
The
band started recording a new album with producer Hans Tømmerholen (Bits
Between) in the summer of 2017 . In August 2017, Big Day Records
released the single "Let it slide" which received rave reviews and sneak
onto several official Spotify playlists. In October 2017, the shocking
news came that Cindahl had passed away and the band was put on hold. In
the spring of 2018, Arne-Magnus Fjelle (Blodstrupmoen) was announced as
the new drummer.
