ELUVEITIE Stream Re-Recorded 'Lament'
July 24, 2012, 12 years ago
2012 marks the 10th year in the career of Swiss “New Wave Of Folk Metal” pioneers ELUVEITIE. In order to celebrate this anniversary properly, the band around founder and main man Chrigel Glanzmann has decided to re-record the very first EP, Vên, completely and to re-master the debut album, Spirit, in order to put these two sought-after collector’s items into one 2CD bundle. This magnificent gift to the fans is entitled The Early Years and will be released via Nuclear Blast Records on August 17th.
As a foretaste, the band has now published the re-recorded version of the track, 'Lament', from Vên, that can be enjoyed below within the framework of an entertaining photo slideshow, including pictures of the band's early days:
Additionally, the track can be downloaded via the band page on the Nuclear Blast website. Also make sure to check out the terrific Eluveitie songpier smartphone app and other great gimmicks here.
Frontman Chrigel Glanzmann previously stated: “The Early Years will give both old and new fans access to the very first steps in Eluveitie’s history. I can’t believe it’s been ten years already! Speaking of that, to celebrate our ten year anniversary (2002-2012) we wanted to offer you something special. Therefore we have decided to re-record the tracks of our first EP Vên! We had a lot of fun putting those songs on tape again – some of which we have been playing live to this day and that have developed together with us over all these years.”
