WAYLANDER: New Song Posted Online

November 26, 2007

Long-running Irish folk metal act WAYLANDER has issued the following update:

"It has been a very busy time for WAYLANDER recently, hence the delay in updates and studio reports. [The new WAYLANDER album] 'Honour Amongst Chaos' is now complete and is just waiting to be mastered. A full song off the album, 'As The Deities Clash', is available for streaming off our MySpace page.

"On the surface it may appear that we have spent an overly long time recording this album. Things are never that straight forward for WAYLANDER though. Preparations for the Full Metal Racket festival in Belfast and behind-the-scenes activity in regard to our label gives a fairer reflection of the actual time spent.

"In other news, Dave Briggs (also of RUNECASTER fame and the producer of our upcoming album) has become WAYLANDER's full-time tin whistle and mandolin player, bringing us up to a sextet.

"We played our first full-length shows of the year earlier in November. First of all we returned to the Voodoo Lounge in Dublin which all went very well as a warm-up show. This got the old energy flowing again for our return to Germany at the Ultima Ratio Festival in Oberhausen which held a crowd of over 3000 people.

"We would like to thank the organisers for putting on a fantastic festival, we truly enjoyed ourselves from what we remember but in true WAYLANDER fashion we abused our free bar privilages. Luckily we didn't turn it into too much of a farce (we hope).

"We would like to add that our trip to Germany would not have been the same without our good friends from Ireland, England, Scotland and the USA, so we would like to thank you guys for making our Allydays so much fun! Was also nice catching up with our old friends from WOLFCHANT and SKYFORGER and meeting new friends ELUVEITIE (who also happened to be the highlight of the festival for all of us).

"So we hope this explains a few things, and now that WAYLANDER are back on form and our album is due for release. We must now look outwards from our so far Do-it-yourself mentality and find a suitable record label to release this much anticipated album. So spread the word and Walk With Honour."
