DIBBUKIM To Release 'Az a Foygl Un A Goylem Tantsn' In April

February 10, 2011

Swedish folk metal band DIBBUKIM will release its debut album, "Az a Foygl Un A Goylem Tantsn", on April 25 via GM Music. The group says, "[The CD] title translates [to] 'as a bird and a golem dances,' and we believe it captures the mood of the recording."

"Az A Foygl Un A Goylem Tantsn" will feature 12 tracks and approximately 40 minutes of "a good mish-mash between metalized traditional Yiddish songs and newly written material."

DIBBUKIM was formed in 2009 when Ida and Niklas Olniansky came up with the idea to start a Yiddish metal band. Old friend Magnus Wohlfart was soon recruited and work on a full-length album began.

The first track for the upcoming CD, "Oyfn Veg Shteyt a Boym" (an old Jewish folk song) was recorded in February 2010 and was released in April 2010. It can be streamed below.

Regarding the new CD cover artwork, DIBBUKIM said, "We've hired artist Jean Hessel, who we also worked with on our debut single, 'Oyfn Veg Shteyt A Boym', to do the cover art for the album, and we can now present the final result. We hope you all agree that Mr. Hessel has created quite a magnificent piece of art for the album, and maybe it'll give you an idea of what the album holds in store for you music-wise."
