CLASSIC ENSLAVED ALBUM REISSUED[views:8888][posts:0]______________________________________ [Jun 15,2004 1:41pm - the_reverend ""] For Immediate Release June 15, 2004 CLASSIC ENSLAVED ALBUM REISSUED Philadelphia: Candlelight Records confirms August 10 as the US release date for Enslave's Vikingligr Veldi/Hordanes Land. Currently unavailable in the US, the mid-line priced reissue is expected to be followed by the band's new album sometime this fall or early new year. Recorded in 1994, the majestic romp of Vikingligr Veldi stands as one of Enslave’s most acclaimed recordings. Utilizing synthesizers, piano and guitars to strong effect, the album conjures a trance-like state through a blurring wall of sound. The caliber and craftsmanship of each song’s arrangement allows the extensively lengthy songs to thrive, a particular characteristic of the Bergen-based band. For the reissue, Candlelight has added the band's hard-to-find Hordanes Land mini-album. 2003 Norwegian Alarm Award and two-time Norwegian Grammy Award nominees Enslaved are a band held in high esteem. Their recordings epitomize the best in Norwegian viking metal and through their growing and musicially creative history, the band have become one of the genre’s most respected. Formed in 1991, Enslaved have shown remarkable will and ability to continually twist their musical vision into new and dynamic forms. The band are known as a hard-working ensemble who dominate the live arena. Kerrang once noted, “Enslaved steal the show with a gloriously ambitious set bolstered by a dizzying light show that has ‘should have been headliners’ written all over it.” Track listing for Vikingligr Veldi/Hordanes Land is confirmed as: Lifandi Lif Undir Hamri, Vetrarnott, Midgards Eldar, Heimdallr, Norvegr, Slaget I Skogen Bortenfor, Allfadr Odinn, Balfor.
