FINAL EINHERJER ALBUM SET FOR US RELEASE[views:4926][posts:1]______________________________________ [Jun 15,2004 2:46pm - the_reverend ""] For Immediate Release June 15, 2004 FINAL EINHERJER ALBUM SET FOR US RELEASE Philadelphia: Candlelight Records confirms August 10 as the US release date for Blot, the final album from Norway's Einherjer. It completes the US catalog for fans of this highly regarded viking metal band. Showcasing a rage, originality and skill that has not yet been seen from the three-piece, Blot is a musicial experience that will not soon be forgotten. Containing long-fascination with their homeland’s mythology and history, Blot’s “crunching guitars rock back and forth, accompanied by mid-paced yet seemingly sporadic but organized drumming,” says Sinister Online. “Frode's grim vocals gruffly gargle in, with his menacing viking bluntness, and keyboards provide the backdrop to the mighty sound that is Einherjer.” Formed in 1993, Einherjer have in their career amassed a respectable recording history and worldwide sales base. With four full-length albums, two mini-albums and the highly collectable "Aurora Borealis" demo to their credit, this Haugesund, Norway-based outfit have most certainly made their mark. Fans worldwide were disappointed upon news of their break up earlier this year; US fans even the more, the band having only once stepped on US soil as part of 2001’s Milwaukee Metal Fest. Alongside Enslaved, Einherjer are considered one of the first groups to forge viking metal's growing popularlity. Their unique sound incorporates sheer intensity with creative and intricate arrangements. With formal musical connections to Blood Red Throne (recently signed to Earache), the band’s legacy is sure to live on. Track listing for Blot is confirmed as: Einherjermarsjen, Ironbound, Dead Knight’s Rite, Wolf-Age, The Eternally Damned, Ware Her Venom, Hammar Haus, Starkad, Ride the Gallows, Ingen Grid, Berserkergang, Venomtongue.
