Primordial continue to promote their highly acclaimed latest studio album, “Exile Amongst the Ruins”, which was released worldwide, via Metal Blade Records, in 2018.

The band will therefore be embarking on a next, re-scheduled third leg of the “Heathen Crusade” across Europe in April and have furthermore confirmed various international festival appearances for 2021, also in celebration of Primordial’s 30th Anniversary since inception in 1991. Below are the dates announced so far.

The wolves of Varg return to their roots with their seventh full-length album, “Zeichen” (engl. “signs”), to be released on September 18th, 2020, via Napalm Records.

Good news for all the folk metal fans missing festivals and concerts: Korpiklaani will premier their performance at Masters Of Rock 2014 this Saturday, 17.00 BST, via Youtube.

Set your reminder for the Youtube premiere here.

The band have said:

Rumahoy set sail with their new release “Time II: Party”, out on July 17th, 2020 via Napalm Records! Straight from the shores of Argentina, Captain Yarrface and his frivolous pirate crew fill their upcoming long-player with ten pirate metal hymns, party anthems and absolutely crazy, but equally legendary stories. Unswerving melodies combined with heavy riffs mark Captain Yarrface’s grand return from the wild sea!

Today, Korpiklaani are pleased to release another adaption of their hit song “Beer Beer”.

The newly launched lyric video for “Pivo Pivo”, which features Achsar vocalist Milan can be watched below.

The band states:

Finnish folk metal heroes Korpiklaani, who are currently preparing for two Russian shows with Trollfest set to happen today and tomorrow, today release their new digital single “Jägermeister” and also wish to extend a very warm welcome to their new drummer Samuli Mikkonen!

Korpiklaani stated:

14 years after their first European “Heathen Crusade” and only 2 years after the second Crusade, Primordial and Moonsorrow will invade Europe again, bringing their double co-headliner brand to another 6 European countries during 9 days.

As very special guest they will bring the neo-folk one-man act Rome to round up the tour package.

European Tour Dates 2020:
18.04.2020 BE - Bomal, Durbuy Rock Festival
19.04.2020 FR - Paris, La Machine du Moulin Rouge

The final performance is set to take place at Hammerfest UK. Support on the tour will come from Nuclear Blast label mates Burning Witches.
