MIDNATTSOL Prepares To Record New Album

April 20, 2007

The German-Norwegian folk metal band MIDNATTSOL has completed work on seven new songs and is currently preparing to enter the studio to record the follow-up to "Where Twilight Dwells". Guitarist Christian Hector states, "The new songs are a bit more complex and have a [stronger] folk influence than the tracks found on the debut. Carmen's vocals are more powerful and you can most certainly count on a new version of a traditional Norwegian song."

"Midnattsol" means "midnight sun" in Norwegian. Although their sound can be classified as gothic metal, the band prefers to call their style "Nordic folk metal" because of the folk elements in their music and occasional Norwegian lyrics.

Guitarists Daniel Droste and Christian Hector recently joined forces with Stephan Adolph to form AHAB, a German funeral doom band.
