VREID Preparing To Hit The Road

February 9, 2009

VREID, the Norwegian band formed by former WINDIR members Hváll (bass),Steingrim (drums) and Sture (vocals, guitar),has issued the following update:

"The wait is over, and we are ready to hit the road again. Since the summer festivals of 2008 we only did six selected shows in Germany, U.S., Ireland and Norway. All focus has been put on finishing [the new VREID album] 'Milorg' and getting the album out there. Now the album is finally out, and what a response it has gotten. The reviews have been brilliant, sales are reported to go great, and the feedback from you out there is fantastic. Over the last months we have gotten several offers for tours and festivals. The Skogstur that kicks off this weekend, the Inferno, Summer Breeze and Brutal Assault festivals have already been announced. We are currently looking into several other offers, and have some fantastic concert news to be announced quite soon.

"Last weekend we hooked up in our good old rehearsal place Fjøsen in Sogndal. It was a magic feeling to play the new songs. I am confident that these songs will bring VREID to a new level as a live band. The Brigade is for sure 100% ready for new missions, and is in better shape than ever. The 'Milorg' material will be well represented on the upcoming tour, so will the old stuff, and we guarantee to play songs from all the albums every goddamn night.

"We are looking forward to tour with our Norse comrades KAMPFAR and ISKALD who both released great albums in the fall of 2008. This is a killer package of Norwegian music, history and culture. Hope to see all you loyal people in the U.K., Holland, France and Germany, as well as many new faces over the next few weeks (dates here)."

An e-card for "Milorg", the fourth album from VREID, is available at this location. The e-card features audio samples of all the cuts that appear on the CD.

A trailer for "Milorg" can be viewed below.

"Milorg" was released in Norway on January 5, 2009 via Indie Recordings (January 19 in the rest of Europe). The cover artwork was designed by PC Groove.
