The Elves are back! Recently, Elvenking revealed the first track off of Secrets Of The Magick Grimoire, their first new album in a few years. You can check out what the Italian power/folk metallers have to offer with their new tune "Draugen's Maelstrom" on the lyric video below. The song "is about our worst inner fears and how we need to deal with them everyday, trying not to be stuck into their whirlwinds and drawn without fighting."
Secrets Of The Magick Grimoire shall be released on November 10th, 2017 through AFM Records.

April 28 will see Elvenking return to fantasy with their epic new album Reader Of The Runes - Rapture via AFM Records. The band's eleventh studio album marks the sequel to their 2019 blockbuster record Reader Of The Runes - Divination.
Elvenking set sail to horizons more distant than ever before, boldly taking the world by storm with their quintessentially unique approach to heavy, powerful music. As guitarist Aydan and vocalist Damna recently revealed, "Part 2 is darker, it needed to be tragic and violent and this gave us the chance to fully breathe the soundscape we already had in mind as we started to write songs in early 2020. We feel that with this album, we have cast a milestone and set a further limit in what we can do by mixing wisely what we deeply love in metal. We are very satisfied with all the shades that compose these eleven songs; altogether they make a canvas we are very proud of."
But give ear, following the previously-released, first album single "Rapture", today, Elvenking premies a haunting lyric video for the epic track, "The Hanging Tree". Watch the clip below, and get the song on all digital platforms here.
Says the band: "The Hanging Tree is a song that sets a violent darker tone as we dive deep into the core of the story narrated in the second part of the “Reader of the Runes” trilogy. If “Rapture” was more epic, slow paced and filled with many different shades and textures, “The Hanging Tree” is a merciless fast cavalcade that goes straight to the point with a heavy fast riffing, melodic yet aggressive vocals, big choirs in the chorus, two insane guitar solos and a folk break in the middle that our dear EK fans will definitely love. It will surely be a highlight in our forthcoming live shows."

On April 11, Italian pagan/folk metal masters, Elvenking, will release their new full-length, Reader Of The Runes - Luna, via Reaper Entertainment. The album marks the spectacular conclusion to the Reader Of The Runes trilogy, immersing listeners in a magical universe filled with mystery, hope, and darkness. With today’s announcement, Elvenking also reveals the record’s stunning cover art and track =listing.
“We are incredibly proud of how this trilogy comes to an epic conclusion,” explains guitarist Aydan. “Luna combines the medieval aura of Divination with the dark threat of Rapture. In this final chapter, everything is revealed — the identity of the Rune Reader and the connections between all the characters.”
Lead vocalist Damna adds, “It’s been a long journey, starting back in 2018, and now we bring the story to its peak. The music in Luna is mysterious, melancholic, but also incredibly epic. We’re proud to have created a work that offers fans the conclusion they deserve.”
With Reader Of The Runes - Luna, Elvenking once again proves their mastery in storytelling and creating musical worlds that transport the listener to another dimension. The first single from the album, "Throes Of Atonement," was released last week. Damna describes the song as “flaming and uplifting — a perfect introduction to the final stage of our epic saga.”

La pochette est chargée, un peu trop même mais cela ne me semble pas fait avec une IA. Le titre est bien accrocheur.
J'ai quelques albums de ce groupe qui en sort régulièrement. (ce sera le 12ème en 23 ans!).
