Obeveklig is Swedish for "relentless," and God Mother's approach on its new EP is indeed, relentless. The Stockholm four-piece barrels forth as if they have exhumed the most epic moments of early Converge and The Dillinger Escape Plan, boiled them down and used them as rocket fuel. Obeveklig is God Mother's first new work to be released in almost 5 years and it is startlingly lean and mean – the sound of a chained dog released from its cage.

“Stockholm, Sweden’s God Mother have come a long way in the last 10 years. The band’s 2015 full-length, Maktbehov, was miles ahead of their debut EP and managed to garner the attention of guitarist Ben Weinman of The Dillinger Escape Plan, who signed the band to his own label Party Smasher Inc. for their 2017 LP, Vilseledd. Now the band have returned with their new EP, Obeveklig… The new EP introduces more angular dissonance fans of SLC’s Cult Leader might enjoy along with the already furious crossover of chaotic hardcore and grindcore the band has established on previous releases.”

"It's easy to see why someone like Ben Weinman would speak so highly of it; the chaotic, grindy hardcore of lead single "Teething" has some shared DNA with the music Ben wrote in DEP."
–BrooklynVegan
"Aside from the insane new single and disorienting-to-the-max video that accompanies it, God Mother has also received a blessing from The Dillinger Escape Plan guitarist Ben Weinman. So you know it's good."
–Metal Injection
"Converge at their most hostile."
–Last Rites
"Everyone’s favorite d-beat-grind-hardcorists God Mother are back with an absolute steamroller of an EP."
–Nine Circles
"Swedish hardcore band God Mother returns with a new EP, Obeveklig... hitting the heights of early Converge and Dillinger Escape Plan."
