JR Ewing (band)

JR Ewing was a post-hardcore band from Oslo, Norway.

Band History

JR Ewing was founded in March 1998 in Oslo. Coming from the punk and hardcore punk scene, the band started with typical furious two-minute punk songs. For their last album Maelstrom, which was released in December 2005, they drove the curiosity to create a less obvious sound and test their limits. This led in some cases to acoustic guitar inserts and a total of more subtle sound.

In the summer of 2006, the members decided to dissolve the band in the autumn of 2006. The guitarist Erlend Mokkelbost plays since 2003 together with his brother Are in the avant- metal band killl. Secondly, it plays at Montée.

Band name

The band's name comes from " John Ross " JR " Ewing Jr. ," one of the main figures of the American television series Dallas.
