FEJD Putting Finishing Touches On New Album
December 27, 2008FEJD, the Swedish folk rock/metal band featuring members of NOSTRADAMEUS and PATHOS, has issued the following update:
"We are now working hard with the last things to finalize our album 'Storm'. The past week we've been taking band pictures and also lots of pics for the cover and booklet. We have a deadline and a goal and we still aim for a March/April release and we will do everything in our power to hold our goal, and together with Napalm Records it really seems like we'll manage to do so. If everything goes as we wish, you'll soon be able to see our ads in your favorite magazines."
FEJD formed in 2001 through a fusion of the folk music duo RIMMERFORS (featuring brothers Patrik Rimmerfors and Niklas Rimmerfors) and a couple of members from the metal band PATHOS. Rimmerfors played folk music with medieval undertones, performing on contemporary instruments, and together with their childhood friends of PATHOS, the transformed into a refined band with the best of both worlds — the weight of heavy metal in symbiosis with the typical melodic language and sadness of the nordic folk music.
The brothers' interest in Swedish medieval folk music started back in 1995, commenced by music studying and the feeling of wanting to explore new musical ground and try something new. The brothers' musical background, as well as their bandmates, has its roots in heavy metal music. Inspiration is also drawn from like-minded bands such as GARMARNA and HEDNINGARNA.
