Bio:

Since 1997, Italian metal pioneers ELVENKING have been an active part of the European scene steadily building a rapidly growing cult fan-base and performing around Europe, in both their home country, Budapest (where a strong set at the Sziget gathering several years ago had people talking for months), and the UK where the band appeared at the legendary Bloodstock Festival with ex Skyclad / Sabbat singer Martin Walkyier (in 2002) and at Metalfest in Dudley (2009) where the band walked away with the joint ‘Band Of The Festival’ prize sharing the spoils with Brainstorm.The band debuted on record in 2001 with the excellent "Heathenreel", but this would only be the beginning. Spreading mystic tales of fantasy and imagination to a wider audience, that album proved that their mixture of epic power metal and frisky folk was capable of instantly grabbing attention and was a lot more focused and real than many. "Wyrd", the band's second album was released in 2004, followed by another showcase of their musical individuality, "The Winter Wake", unleashed in 2006; but it was probably “The Scythe” (released in 2007) that became their biggest success so far and set the band on the current path. Not only did they dare to enhance their unique sound with some more dark/modern elements (to the delight of many), but with its strikingly bold track “The Divided Heart” they presented a high class video clip that has grabbed the attention of over one million (!) viewers on the internet, a feat that continues to this day. Their semi-acoustic 2008 follow up to “The Scythe”, “Two Tragedy Poets (...And A Caravan Of Weird Figures)” displayed their folk roots like never before and provided the band with their first European headlining tours and biggest festival bookings such as “Summer Breeze” but for 2010, the band has decided to return to full electric power again with “Red Silent Tides”. A tour with Primal Fear accompanied the release, as well as many headliner shows and festivals throughout Europe, proving that ELVENKING is more wanted than ever before. Now, 2012, the band embarks to a new “Era”. Join them on their trip, it will be exciting!

Album:

With 'The Pagan Manifesto' present the Italian Folk Power Metal Master Elvenking a new album that not only shows how much the band has evolved, but also how high the creativity level of the band is now.Even though they always were delivering quality and have therefore built up a loyal and global fanbase, show 'The Pagan Manifesto' the true potential of this band: it combines the best of the previous days with improved songwriting and high skill.Prove songs like the 13-minute epic 'King of the Elves' with guest vocalist Amanda Somerville, Elvenking that are leaders in their genre!

Now, 2012, the band embarks to a new “Era”. Join them on their trip, it will be exciting!

Album:

Everyone who met me, ever, knows I’m a sucker for power metal. So, growing up to tales of fantasy, magical creatures and worlds and cheesy and epic song choruses, and adding the fact that I also find the folk and pagan sides of metal extremely relevant and interesting, Elvenking – especially the ‘Heathenreel’ and ‘Wyrd’ albums – was a no-brainer for me when I wanted some cool tales of paganism and some violins here and there in my dose of the genre.The Italians haven’t strayed too far from the sound of their debut over the years, but there was a clear loss of quality along the way, until they completely obliterated the criticism with the wholesome ‘Pagan Manifesto’ three years ago. Following the same formula – and seeming to have achieved a perfect harmony between the classic and the new – the forest-dwellers go strong again with ‘Secrets of the Magick Grimoire’, their 9th album.Like many of the power/folk acts out there, Elvenking have always used the frivolous atmosphere of the genre to write unpretentious and carefree songs, which can be found here as well. Starting with a bang in “Invoking the Woodland Spirit”, they set the pace right from the first verse of the track, which switches from a folk anthem to fast-paced power hymn during its course.The first half of the album, for that matter, abuses of that formula really well, with songs like the melodic and catchy “Draugen’s Maelstrom” and the fanfare-like “The Horned Ghost and the Sorcerer” – this last one slower in the verses and bridge but epic in the chorus – holding up to the high quality of the effort.The melodic vocal lines of frontman and leader Damna suit perfectly with each song, as he’s able to transition from melodic and lower parts to characteristic high-pitched power metal screams with ease. The backing vocals provided by the whole band, especially guitarist Aydan, and the harsh vocal appearances by Nekrokraft and Witchery vocalist Angus Norder complement Damna’s singing perfectly, especially in songs like “A Grain of Truth”. The legendary Snowy Shaw (Denner/Shermann, Notre Dame, ex-Mercyful Fate, ex-King Diamond, ex-Therion) also provides a really cool vocal performance in “At the Court of the Wild Hunt”; these all help with the album’s proposal of being magical and diversified.As I wrote above, the Italians manage to successfully mix the classic songwriting, full of breakdowns and epic builds, with newer elements – especially in the riffs and drum parts (I suspect that the debuting member Marco Lanciotti, which also currently plays for Hell in the Club and has been a part of DGM for some live shows, has something to do with the latter); this becomes more evident in the second half of the album, as songs like “The Wolves Will Be Howling Your Name” and “Straight Inside Your Winter” are constructed a bit differently.The writing is what you would expect from an Elvenking album, with lots of fairy tales of spells, dark forests, sabbaths and magic books. Not erudite or genius in any way, but well worthy of picking up the booklet and reading the lyrics. The production is also one of the high points of the effort, with the duo Aydan and Damna taking the producer credits and legendary producer and DGM guitarist Simone Mularoni taking the mixing and mastery roles.It seems to me that Elvenking have found their path across the dark forests of creativity once again and consolidated the new musical approach started with ‘The Pagan Manifesto’. Embracing the band’s true essence from the heydays and adding some new layers and arrangements to the arsenal, Damna, Aydan and company have once again managed to make melodic power metal and traditional folk music to coexist. ‘Secrets of the Magick Grimoire’ is not as impactful as its predecessor, but it’s definitely an album worth checking out. Highly recommended.

Bio:

Since 1997, Italian metal pioneers ELVENKING have been an active part of the European scene steadily building a rapidly growing cult fan-base and performing around Europe, in both their home country, Budapest (where a strong set at the Sziget gathering several years ago had people talking for months), and the UK where the band appeared at the legendary Bloodstock Festival with ex Skyclad / Sabbat singer Martin Walkyier (in 2002) and at Metalfest in Dudley (2009) where the band walked away with the joint ‘Band Of The Festival’ prize sharing the spoils with Brainstorm.The band debuted on record in 2001 with the excellent "Heathenreel", but this would only be the beginning. Spreading mystic tales of fantasy and imagination to a wider audience, that album proved that their mixture of epic power metal and frisky folk was capable of instantly grabbing attention and was a lot more focused and real than many. "Wyrd", the band's second album was released in 2004, followed by another showcase of their musical individuality, "The Winter Wake", unleashed in 2006; but it was probably “The Scythe” (released in 2007) that became their biggest success so far and set the band on the current path. Not only did they dare to enhance their unique sound with some more dark/modern elements (to the delight of many), but with its strikingly bold track “The Divided Heart” they presented a high class video clip that has grabbed the attention of over one million (!) viewers on the internet, a feat that continues to this day. Their semi-acoustic 2008 follow up to “The Scythe”, “Two Tragedy Poets (...And A Caravan Of Weird Figures)” displayed their folk roots like never before and provided the band with their first European headlining tours and biggest festival bookings such as “Summer Breeze” but for 2010, the band has decided to return to full electric power again with “Red Silent Tides”. A tour with Primal Fear accompanied the release, as well as many headliner shows and festivals throughout Europe, proving that ELVENKING is more wanted than ever before. Now, 2012, the band embarks to a new “Era”. Join them on their trip, it will be exciting!

Album:

Considering the impressive history of Elvenking, there is no chance to deny it: the Italian folk power metal band belongs to the most important and unique bands of the scene. Founded in 1997, the musicians soon made their way and established themselves among the leading acts of Europe when it comes to powerful metal music with folk and pagan influences. In 2019, the band releases their next and tenth masterpiece: "Reader Of The Runes: Divination". The concept album is an adventurous journey into a mystic world of runes, magic and ancient powers far away from the visible.But not only the overwhelming concept makes "Reader Of The Runes: Divination" the maybe most epic album Elvenking ever recorded. Musically it is definitely an album that breathes freshness while still being totally loyal to the unique sound of the band. With "Reader Of The Runes: Divination", Elvenking started a completely new chapter in the band's existence and opened a new world to their fans and listeners. Let the story begin - the power of the runes and the mysteries of divination are waiting for you!

Bio:

Since 1997, Italian metal pioneers ELVENKING have been an active part of the European scene steadily building a rapidly growing cult fan-base and performing around Europe, in both their home country, Budapest (where a strong set at the Sziget gathering several years ago had people talking for months), and the UK where the band appeared at the legendary Bloodstock Festival with ex Skyclad / Sabbat singer Martin Walkyier (in 2002) and at Metalfest in Dudley (2009) where the band walked away with the joint ‘Band Of The Festival’ prize sharing the spoils with Brainstorm.The band debuted on record in 2001 with the excellent "Heathenreel", but this would only be the beginning. Spreading mystic tales of fantasy and imagination to a wider audience, that album proved that their mixture of epic power metal and frisky folk was capable of instantly grabbing attention and was a lot more focused and real than many. "Wyrd", the band's second album was released in 2004, followed by another showcase of their musical individuality, "The Winter Wake", unleashed in 2006; but it was probably “The Scythe” (released in 2007) that became their biggest success so far and set the band on the current path. Not only did they dare to enhance their unique sound with some more dark/modern elements (to the delight of many), but with its strikingly bold track “The Divided Heart” they presented a high class video clip that has grabbed the attention of over one million (!) viewers on the internet, a feat that continues to this day. Their semi-acoustic 2008 follow up to “The Scythe”, “Two Tragedy Poets (...And A Caravan Of Weird Figures)” displayed their folk roots like never before and provided the band with their first European headlining tours and biggest festival bookings such as “Summer Breeze” but for 2010, the band has decided to return to full electric power again with “Red Silent Tides”. A tour with Primal Fear accompanied the release, as well as many headliner shows and festivals throughout Europe, proving that ELVENKING is more wanted than ever before. Now, 2012, the band embarks to a new “Era”. Join them on their trip, it will be exciting!

Album:

Eleventh studio album by Italian folk/power metal institution Elvenking, "Reader Of The Runes: Rapture" is the second part of an extensive story concept that will span three albums. Already twenty years Elvenking set the tone when it comes to folk power metal. With their eleventh album "Reader Of The Runes: Rapture" the Italian band will continue their popular "Reader Of The Runes" series and defend their justified cult status. Another foundation for mystical, enchanted and brute power metal.
