Norway’s TROLLFEST have released a video teaser for the band’s upcoming fifth full-length album, Brumlebassen. Check it out below:

The band recently unveiled the artwork for Brumlebassen, which is due for release on NoiseArt Records in August of this year. Responsible once again for the amazing images that vividly depict the story of what will be the band’s fifth full-length album is Swedish cartoonist Jonas Darnell, who originally created the iconic metal duck from the band's Villanden album, and has worked with the band ever since. Terje Johnsen, who has been working on the design side of Trollfest's releases since the Brakebein album, has once again teamed up with Darnell to produce the finished package.

Brumlebassen tells a story about one of the characters that inhabit the fantastical universe created by the band. This time the story is about Brumlebassen the Bee Keeper, whose task it is to care for the bees and brew the Honey Mead that is much loved by the Trolls. Brumlebassen adores his bees so much that he would secretly like to become one of them himself and he is therefore depicted wearing a bee costume!

Tracklisting for Brumlebassen, which will be available as a gatefold vinyl and limited digi pack including 12 tracks plus a bonus track, is as follows:

Earlier this week, the band issued the following update:

"Time to unveil the new promo photos and you must be wondering why there are two of us missing. Well, we’ve had to bid a fond farewell to two of our members whose personal and work commitments meant that they could no longer dedicate the amount of time needed for a band that’s as active as TrollfesT. So please join us in wishing PsychoTroll and St Beinhard lots of luck for the future. We have lots of musicians waiting to fill in on stage for us, some of whom you know and love, some of whom you don’t know yet, but you’re bound to love them once you do.

"And don’t worry everyone, as you can see from the photo we’ve been celebrating the next phase in TrollfesT’s career. All of us are having the time of our lives not only because we get to play the music we want. Not only because we get to work with the fantastic people at our label NoiseArt, our Booking Agency Rock the Nation and our Manager Patricia Thomas. Not only because we get to travel round and share the stage with some fantastic bands. But also because we get to meet all of you (well some of you anyway), and you are the best fans that any band could have.

"So put our party photo up on your screens, blow up a few balloons, put on your party hats and pretend you’re sitting round the table with us making a mess of your beards with the cream cakes and getting happily drunk on the beer (naked hairy legs optional).

Skäll everyone to a bigger, brighter, and better future with Trollfest."
