WORLD OF DAMAGE New Single ‘I Will Not Conform’ Out Now | ROCKNGROWL.COM

Norwegian hard rock/metal band, WORLD OF DAMAGE, the solo project of guitarist Kjell Åge Karlsen (JORNCHROME DIVISION) aka Mr.Damage have released their first single ‘I will Not Conform‘, featuring Shagrath (Dimmu BorgirChrome Division) & Maurice Adams (BreeDEnigma Experience), today. The single can be streamed here.

The track is taken from the debut album ‘Invoke Determination‘, which will be released on June 11th, 2021. ‘Invoke Determination‘ featuring some of the greatest names within the modern rock and metal scene, including Shagrath (Dimmu BorgirChrome Division), Roy Khan (KamelotConception), Björn «Speed» Strid (SoilworkThe Night Flight Orchestra), Maurice Adams (BreeDEnigma Experience) and Chris Clancy (Wearing Scars) to name a few.

Mr.Damage has to say, “The idea of making this album goes all the way back to around 2016. I found myself in a situation were I wanted to make music without having to think about it fitting into Chrome Division or any other band, or form. I just wanted it to be my own music, being everything from rock and metal, to ballads and instrumental music. Kinda just let the music do the talking without analyzing it too much. When you are playing in a band, the music is a product of the style and the people of the band. But when you are on your own, everything is up to you, and you alone. It’s like painting a picture; it’s you, the brush, the colors, and the canvas. Not five people, with five brushes and five different buckets of paint. I am very pleased and proud of the album, and I can’t wait to show off, the World Of Damage.

All guitars and bass is played by Mr.Damage. Drums is hammered in by the great Aki Viitala from Shot At Dawn. The album is produced by Mr.Damage and mixed & mastered by Marius Strand (Chrome DivisionThe Wretched EndSusperia) at Strand Studio, Oslo, Norway.
