December 30, 2006, 17 years ago
Guitarist Stefan Weinerhall from Swedish power metallers FALCONER has issued the following update:
"Thanks to all the fans for the great response of the new album first of all. I still listen to it myself and think 'damn it's good' but with that contentment I wonder if we can do it even better........ I don't want to write the same album again although Northwind felt perfect to me. I have a few ideas of what ways to take to evolve, no drastic ones though. We're currently planning a few gigs next year, more on that will come. As most of you know we won't be touring, but some shows will be done during the summer. Meanwhile Karsten (Larsson - drums) has become a father to a little daughter."As previously reported, Falconer released their new album, Northwind, on September 22nd in Germany/Austria/Switzerland and September 25th in the rest of Europe. In an exclusive encounter with BW&BK;, Metal Blade label president Brain Slagel admits to a change of heart and revealed that Northwind will, in fact, get a domestic release. Details of the release will be revealed soon.
The album was 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 track list of the bonus CD is as follows: 'Kristallen Den Fina', 'Ridom Ridom' 'Liten Vätte', 'Vårvindar Friska'.
