FALCONER Complete Recordings For Northwind; Artwork Available
July 24, 2006, 18 years ago
Swedish power metallers FALCONER have finished recordings on their fifth studio album entitled Northwind.
Guitar player Stefan Weinerhall comments: “Northwind, the fifth album of Falconer is a return to the folkish style after some experiment on the last one. Very melodic and catchy, and with Mathias (Blad) back on vocals he gives the album that extra epic touch that none other can do. The album is not a concept album although the title sums up the atmosphere of both the music and the lyrics. From catchy metal to sweet ballads to medieval minstrels gone electrified, there´s something for all tastes.”
The album will be released as a limited first edition including a bonus CD with recordings of four Swedish folk songs and a video documentary of the album recordings.
The tracklisting for Northwind is as follows: 'Northwind', 'Waltz With The Dead', 'Spirit Of The Hawk', 'Legend And The Lore', 'Catch The Shadows', 'Tower Of The Queen', 'Long Gone By', 'Perjury And Sanctity', 'Fairyland Fanfare', 'Himmel Så Trind', 'Blinded', 'Delusion', 'Home Of The Knave', 'Black Tarn' (Instr), 'Child Of The Wild 2006' (Japan Bonus).
Tracklisting for bonus CD: 'Kristallen Den Fina', 'Ridom Ridom' 'Liten Vätte', 'Vårvindar Friska' plus a video documentary of the recording.
