More Vintersorg News
According to a post that Vintersorg made on his forum, he and Matias are slowly at work recording the follow up to 2007’s Solens Rötter. While a name hasn’t been given for the new record yet, he teased today that in fact all the lyrics have ended up being in Swedish—and that this is entirely […]
Leaves’ Eyes – Njord Review
Fame has its benefits. Getting signed immediately after you leave/get fired from your other band is one of those things. Of course, the inevitable problem with fame is that no matter how far away from what you got famous for, you will always be compared to it.

I had discovered the demo “I en tid som var…” and had gotten really excited the band, and was frankly surprised that they hadn’t been picked up by anyone. So as you can suspect from this introduction, I was eagerly anticipating Storm—the band’s newest release.
