Reviews of the Double Space 12"

"A tremendous capturing of raw emotion brilliantly executed by Double Space and caught on tape for the centuries." by HellrideMusic

"The monstrous sound is remarkable for a 3-piece and there is no passengers on this hellride, the guitar duo is excellent while the snarling, gritty vocals really drive home a mean, unforgiving sound. [...] This is a must for the sludge-metal connoisseur....9/10" by Doomantia

"Gosh, this band kills, sludge at its most destructive, efficient, sapid, jubilatory, erectile [...] It's High on Fire meeting Unsane meeting EyeHateGod, but more powerful than the 3 together." by Forgotten Songs

"When was the last time a band with no bassist sounded THIS thick and heavy? Damned if I know, but I DO know I wanna hear MORE MORE MORE, ASAP." by The Sleeping Shaman

"It is utterly amazing the tremendous sound that this band is able to achieve as a three-piece with only the use of a guitar duo and a drummer. This is fucking massive!" by Heavy Planet

"A two-track vinyl 12' of two-ton sludge, Double Space doubles down with some heavy downtuned riffage.[...] Man, this is some really good stuff." by Planet Fuzz

"Double Space wrings heavy acid out of very heavy stones. They do it mighty well. [...] Powerful stuff, recommended." by Geiger -- (click here for translation)

"Two guitarists and one drummer combine sludge,stoner and noise into it's most efficient form that blasts your ears and brain." by Stoned Sun Vibrations

"Double Space offer modern pummel in varying paces throughout, keeping an eye on the balance between nasty-sounding riffs and creating a tension in the music and vocals." by The Obelisk

"Can't describe this better than it reads in their promo pack, "unmatched heavy epic groove rock", yea it is" by Droning Earth

Reviews of Double Space live

"Robust pain and hypnosis smash into each other, and Double Space light small fires of shrill and mournful compositions. by Modkraft -- (click here for translation)

"The combination of heavy crunchy riffs on caterpillars and the very agile solo playing, which transmitted both melodic and noisy sequences, plus lots of tempo changes and hoarse vocals from the center (the drummer sang as well), showed it's full worth. by Transmission -- (click here for translation)

Bio

DOUBLE SPACE distills the essence of sludge, stoner doom and noise rock into their own crystal clear vision: Unmatched heavy epic groove rock. An utterly relentless onslaught of crushing power riffs and killer leads. Never looking back!

DOUBLE SPACE - based in Aarhus, Denmark - formed late 2003 around the recording of a handful of songs the two guitarists Mikko Mansikkala Jensen and Rasmus Rosenkilde Jensen had written together. Drummer Per Silkjær was initially brought in as a session drummer. Yet the DOUBLE SPACE universe instantly engulfed him. The heaviness, the curious guitar melodies and the persistent search for the ultimate in every aspect of making music.

And even before these recordings were to be released and receive high appraisal from Danish underground press, the first show was played supporting Electric Turn To Me and Lost Sounds. Over the years stages are shared with a ton of bands, including Unsane, Fuck The Facts and Ufomammut, and a reputation as a mind blowing live act is established. Dreaded by headliners - loved by stoked audiences.

On paper the combination of two guitarists and a drummer may strike one as a bit odd, in terms of playing seriously low end based music. But as any member of a DOUBLE SPACE concert audience will testify: ”It does not get much more massive than this!”. And here you also find the reason why DOUBLE SPACE fans have dubbed the band’s backline Twin Towers. The sound of a colossal brick wall collapsing on top of you!

Seemingly DOUBLE SPACE have everything going for them, yet they are followed by a dark shadow. Suicidal girlfriends and chaotic love lives, record deals with labels that fold, producers who drop off the face of the earth carrying entire DOUBLE SPACE recording sessions and the list goes on. Everything from the smallest margin to the greater powers work against them on a bit too regular basis. The emotional havoc spills into the lyrical content, and the band discovers they can use this, as their own collective therapy session to overcome.

Another break is caught when Danish Metal Award nominees Rising step up and ask DOUBLE SPACE to support them on their 2010 European tour. A two track maxi 12”, mixed by Q (Danish indie rock darlings Figurines, Tiger Tunes, Beta Satan a.o.) - an avid DOUBLE SPACE fan - is released by the band for the occasion.

Immediately upon the return from the tour, late March 2010, four new songs are tracked live with Jacob Bredahl (ex-Hatesphere, Last Mile, The Kandidate) by the helm at his Dead Rat Studio. ”There has never been so much low end in this studio!” Bredahl confesses at first. And then he proceeds to torture the band to deliver their all-time best.

Things are indeed looking up for Double Space, and the nearest future has been dedicated to obtaining worldwide distribution for the debut 12”, hunting for a vinyl label to release the next one, and not least, torturing Bredahl until he delivers the mix of a life time. ..
