November 12, 2012, 12 years ago
Minsk, Belarus-based folk metallers LITVINTROLL are preparing for the release of their sophomore album, Czornaja Panna (“The Black Lady”), the follow-up to their 2009 debut.
Since the release of the debut, the ensemble’s structure has undergone changes – with new keyboardist, guitarist and drummer – and the band's sound has become more saturated, dense, with noticeable influences of doom.
Czornaja Panna consists of eight tracks, all different from each other. But, despite of its stylistic variety, the record sounds monolithic. There is merit in not only the musicians, but also of sound engineer Alexey Bolotov working over the sound.
Tracks to be featured on the release include:
'Da Siabra' (To a Friend)
'Kry?ak - Piesnia Pra Trolau II' (Crusader - The Song About Trolls II)
'Kamarowa ?mier?' (The Mosquito's Death)
'Lipka' (The Linden)
'Karaleuskaja' (A King’s Song)
'Czornaja Panna' (The Black Lady)
'Ad Astra'
'Lasun' (The Wild Man)
On September 2, 2012, just some days before the ending of work on the album, tragedy struck. During the concert in Homel,the band’s bass player, Aleh Klimchanka, died on stage. The album Czornaja Panna is dedicated to his memory.
Says the band: "Your music will sound eternally, Aleh."
