Swiss Pagan Metal horde Eluveitie just revealed the cover artwork of their upcoming new folk album Evocation I: The Arcane Dominion.

Mainman Chrigel Glanzmann states: "As Evocation I: The Arcane Dominion is a concept album setting pure Gaulish mythology into music, we also wanted to be the artwork in the same line. Kernunnos is one of the most important and central characters in Celtic mythology. So we conceived a topical portrayal of that figure, representing as the ancient mythological content of Evocation I: The Arcane Dominion as well as it's musical character.

"The tracks on Evocation I: The Arcane Dominion take you on a journey through ancient Gaulish mythology, a journey deep into the Celtic soul. You'll pass diverse instrumental tracks, setting mythological topics into music, as well as songs, which are exclusively sung in ancient Gaulish language. Most lyrics are 1600 ? 2100 years old.



"We're proud and happy we have some illustrious and excellent guests musicians on this album: Fredy Schnyder from Nucleus Torn playing the hammered dulcimer on two tracks, Oli S. Tyr from the German medieval folkers Faun contributing the magical sounds of the long-necked lute on the title track. Furthermore Alan Nemtheanga from the Irish pagan metallers Primordial presenting his vocal art in two tracks, Mina The Fiddler from the experimental folk band Brana Keterna enchanting two tracks with the sounds of the 5-stringed viola and at last Sarah Wauquiez, our former bandmember, playing Zuger?rgeli (Helvetic accordion) on one track."
