Tension to be released on Spotify on October 16th, 2020
Pre-save our next single on Spotify, or Spotikka, as we Norsemen tend to say. The song is already available on YouTube, and the Mexicans seem to like it. They make good Fenders in Mexico, you know? Rivers Cuomo knows what I’m talking about. Anyway, we’re quite proud of this song, as it makes you want … Read more

“Dust on the shelves” to be released on April 12, 2019
The new song marks a new, explorative chapter in the Unzyme saga. It may be a bit of a counter reaction to the pop-infested Transplant. That’s not to say that we don’t like Transplant. It’s our best album so far, but these new songs play a different game. It’s more of a risk to go … Read more
