Vreid recently released the music video for the song 'The Sound Of The River', from V. The video was recorded over a three-day period in Wroclaw Poland, and is produced by Grupa 13 who are well known for their work for BEHEMOTH, AMON AMARTH.
"It was a pleasure to work with such professional and creative people," comments the band's bass player and songwriter Hváll. "The filming itself went very smooth, and we had a great dialogue with the producers both by building the storyline, as well as in the process of the after work."Check it out below:
Lyrically Vreid has also entered new landscapes with V. The Sound Of The River is inspired by the book Markens Grøde/Growth Of The Soil, which gained the legendary and and controversial Norwegian author Knut Hamsun the Nobel prize in literature in 1920.

'Arche
