CD/DVD Releases: Finntroll Launches New Track At Redesigned MySpace Page; Present Cover Art Of ''

Posted on Wednesday, December 23 @ 22:05:00 UTC by nightowl

Finntroll are back! In February 2010 the band will release its highly anticipated new slab of folk-rooted black metal hymns entitled Nifelvind. It was recorded at Sonic Pump Studios (Apocalyptica, Amorphis, Ensiferum, etc.) in Helsinki, Finland and mastered by Mika Jussila (Children Of Bodom, Sonata Arctica, Him, etc.) at Finnvox Studios. The album cover artwork was done again by the band's own guitarist Skrymer and visually captures the true Finntroll spirit perfectly.

Nifelvind will be released on Tuesday, March 9th, 2010.



Whereas the band?s unique style has spawned an entire new genre that successfully blends black metal darkness with folkloristic melodies, in 2010 Finntroll shall proudly reclaim the folk metal throne and leave myriads of copycats crushed to pieces.

To properly celebrate the release of the new album, Finntroll will be headlining the 2010 edition of the Paganfest tour, so see below for the exact dates and be there!
