With their third full-length album Cold due for release at the end of March on Napalm Records, Austrian black metallers HELLSAW have decided to give fans a taste of what is to come by streaming the track 'Ache' in its entirety, plus edits from 'Der Harzwald' on MySpace at myspace.com/hellsawmusic.

The 13-track album also includes a bonus DVD that features appearances by the band at the Ragnarok and Under the Black Sun Festivals, and at the Le Romandie venue in Lausanne, together with a photo gallery tracing the band’s history from the very early days to the present time.

According to front-man Aries, the idea for the DVD came about from all the messages the band receives from fans: “Playing live is a big part of Hellsaw, and we realized that there are a lot of fans who will probably never be able to see us play live, but who are great supporters of the band and undoubtedly helped us get as far as we have, so we thought that including the DVD would be a good way to thank them”, said the vocalist.

Hellsaw will launch Cold at the Kulturkeller in Gleisdorf, Austria, on the 28th of March, and have already been confirmed to play at the following festivals during 2009:

April

18 - Kings of Black Metal, at Hassenhalle - Giesen, Germany
