Monument presents: Oh Hiroshima + Barrens 12/2
Emerging from the fertile Scandinavian post-rock landscape, Oh Hiroshima have built a reputation for transforming introspection into vast, cinematic sound. Over the past decade, the Swedish duo has refined a musical language that balances fragility with overwhelming emotional force.
Originally formed over 15 years ago, the current iteration of Oh Hiroshima consists of brothers Jakob Hemström (guitar/vocals) and Oskar Nilsson (drums). Since their debut in 2011, the band has released a string of critically acclaimed albums, gradually expanding their sound beyond their post-rock roots and establishing a strong international presence.
In 2026, Oh Hiroshima return with And the Dead Tree Gives No Shelter, continuing their exploration of tension, atmosphere, and intensity, with a renewed focus on bringing these songs to full realisation live.
Gothenburg/Malmö-based post rock power trio Barrens return with Corpse Lights, the band’s second full-length release following their critically-acclaimed 2020 debut Penumbra. Five years in the making, Corpse Lights sees Barrens strike a breathtaking balance between light and dark; beauty and brutality; the calm and the chaos as the three fast friends refine their formidable command of composition and dynamic even further.
One listen to Barrens and the revelation that Markku Hildén, Johan G. Winther and Kenta Jansson had already been playing and touring together before forming the band suddenly makes sense. In 2018 Markku joined Scraps of Tape, Johan and Kenta’s other project as a live drummer for two tours of Europe and a tour of China. Recognising an immediate chemistry, the outlines for what would become Barrens were sketched out in countless vans, trains, planes and bars as they travelled together across the world.
