'''Kvelertak''' (Eng: "Stranglehold") are a Norwegian metal band whose unique style combines BlackMetal, HardcorePunk and HardRock into a sound some fans have dubbed "Black 'n' Roll". It's a loud, [[MetalScream throat-rending]], but surprisingly accessible sound that's building them a fanbase across the world, despite them only singing in Norwegian.

The band's [[SelfTitledAlbum self-titled debut]] was released in 2010 to enthusiastic response, and 2013's ''Meir'' was only more so, coming in at #1 in their native Norway and charting in several European charts that hadn't even noticed them first time around.

!!This band provides examples of:
* AlbumIntroTrack: "Åpenbaring" on ''Meir'', which is almost all guitar crescendo.
* BlackMetal: The sound they're most connected to.
* BookEnds: Both ''Kvelertak'' and ''Meir'' begin and end with the band shouting "KVELERTAK!" Played with in the latter album, where it's shouted in the beginning [[SubliminalSeduction in reverse]], then at the end in the middle of the self-titled song.
* HardcorePunk: One of their influences
* HardRock: Another aspect of their sound. Especially prominent in "Tordenbrak" and the band's self-titled song.
* HeavyMetal
