ELVENKING To Release 'Wyrd' In The Fall

September 4, 2003

Italian "pagan metal" act ELVENKING have set "Wyrd" as the title for their forthcoming album, due in the fall through AFM Records.

The band used several studios for the recording sessions, including Gernhart Studio in Siegburg, Germany and the House Of Music facility in Stuttgart, Germany with producer Achim Kohler (PRIMAL FEAR, BRAINSTORM).

The follow-up to 2001's "Heathenreel" will contain the following cuts:

01. A Poem for the Firmament
02. Another Haven
03. Disappearing Sands
04. A Fiery Stride
05. Jigsaw Puzzle
06. The Losers' Ball
07. Moonchariot
08. Midnight Circus
09. Pathfinders
10. The Perpetual Knot
11. The Silk Dilemma
12. Waves of Infinite Skies

Regarding the album's musical direction, guitarist Aydan told Metal Covenant recently, "The fact is that we didn't want to create a copy of 'Heathenreel', so there will be some new elements in 'Wyrd' . . . The songs will be more straight to the point, but for example there is a 12-minute long song so this doesn't mean that we are easier, or whatever… 'Wyrd' is not a copy of 'Heathenreel' but it's clearly an ELVENKING album!"
