It's great. I'm liking the artwork a whole lot more than I did from the previews. Although a canvas limited would stille be so great.

The music is good, as is to be expected. I even think I heard a bit of Origin, Epic and The Astral Factor in there. So far Idétemplet and At Bygga En Ruin stands out.

Maan I've been so out of touch of the musical world! A new Vintersorg album! yay!

Now here's to hoping the record stored here get the bastard in.

by seeing your avatar...
this year will be THE year for sigur rós. They are going to release 3 DVDs and 4 CDs (while 2 CDs belong to the 2 DVDs). One acoustic album!
And among those is what I always wanted to listen to completely: Odin's Raven Magic!

sigur rós have finished mixing their long-awaited orchestral work odin’s raven magic and hope to release it on cd and dvd early in the autumn. the work, written and debuted in 2002, is based on the 14th century icelandic poem about a great banquet held by the gods in valhalla.

Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson, the "chief" of the Icelandic Asatru believers, is involved into this project, as far as I know. OMFG that'll be so awesome!!!

This sweet post rock band is everything pagan metal bands want to be. I don't think Hilmar'd sing on a Falkenbach, Thyrfing or whatsoever record


sorry for going off-topic ^^

With Solen's Rotter I feel Vintersorg has took all his best types of work and thrown them into the album. Might explain why I love this album so much, each song is refreshing and new, the entire album is not just "one genre". Like very simple First 2 = Folk, last 3 = prog. This one I still find myself unable to pinpoint a genre, which I really like.

*can't buy it until 30th here apparently*
None of the stores are getting it in until 30th. Boooo

 

[The Minds Eye]

Guess who has to wait 3 weeks to get his copy !

 

[Thidrek]

me for example
alright, it's only one week but still to long!

 

[MFJ]

off topic but how did you do that
i need to lose about 40lbs myself

hiking... lots and lots of hiking. no refined sugars (candy, soda, etc...), only organic and natural foods.

on topic: so these shirts are sold out?

 

[NeglectedField]

I placed a pre-order for the album the other day, apparently I didn't order early enough because they're out of stock already and I apparently wasn't high enough on the list of first-comers.

Sorry if this has been asked before but are lyrics included in the sleeve?

 

[Vampyrian]

I haven't seen the album yet, but I'm pretty sure they're included in the booklet.

 

[Nachito!]

i just ordered it!

 

[The Minds Eye]

I wonder how well the album is selling as apposed to the others? This is something I would be interested to hear about it would be nice to see my favourite artist getting recognized more and and more.

 

[paradoxile]

it's too early to tell...since it's not out in the US for instance

How exactly can you tell though? Are there resources for this type of information? I'd be looking it up if there were!?

 

[paradoxile]

i suppose Napalm Recs keep count...
in the US there's the billboard thingie that keeps count
there should be weekly sales charts in different countries...

best way to get worldwide figures is to e-mail a Napalm official

 

[Vampyrian]

I don't know if this has been noticed before but... well I just noticed that there's no 'drummer credit' on the new album? So I'm guessing all of the drums are programmed, in that case.. WOW Great job mr. V, they're amazing.

Yep, lyrics are in the booklet. I received mind last night! Great album! Especially when the release date for Canada/US is May 22nd... NapalmRecords are extremely quick, it took 10 days after the end of the contest for the album arrived.

Got to Go guys, i can't stop listening that CD.

 

[Vampyrian]

Napalm Records are teh win! I get all of the albums I order there in 4,5 days which is normal delivery time.


Karl is the man.
