Yeah, the build-up towards the new album is very slow, but they were buried weren't they? So I can live with that.

I like both. Of course, "Hybris" is my favourite album too, but that was a magnificent pair of masterpieces! And maybe soon we'll get "three of a perfect pair"!

| People of Progverse, did you know that Anglagard is back? Well i did NOT know and finding that out put a big smile on my face since they were responsible for a couple of amazing albums and my regaining faith in the possibility of Prog Rock´s ressurgence in the early 90s.

"Finally. The recording of Änglagårds third album starts today. The plan is to record drums on two songs, and possibly some grand piano and Timpani. Thomas and Jonas have been working hard this weekend getting all the monitor files in order and I have been trying to figure out how much crapola Ill be bringing to the studio. With a bit of luck it will all work out."-------------  |

They've sent me an E-Mail via their newsletter mailing list, that will be buried sooner or later (they mention), sad to say.

Awesome! Very curious to see what they sound like after absorbing 8 years worth of influences. Hybris is quite possibly my favourite 90's album from any genre, and it's up there for favourite overall. About halfway through "Kung Bore" I always drop anything I'm doing and rock out like a maniac. ------------- And everything under the sun is in tune But the sun is eclipsed by the moon |

Man, so many people have been waiting for this one album for so long. I can't wait! Super excited.  The album cover is very cool as well. It has that dark, murky look that was shown on the previous album that I really enjoy.

| I love that it's only 57 min long. That means they were careful only to include what they were inspired to do, and didn't try to write more only to fill the size of the CD. I hope this will be great. |

| Alvarsdotter said that the album would be available in the first week of July. And BTW, the video you posted is not a new song, it's from their second album |

I'm sort of excited... I loved their first album. The second one I only heard on Youtube a couple of times and didn't sound as great as the first one... but I'd need to give it more listens to be sure. I wonder what will the new one sound? More similar to the first or the second? Or something completley new?
And how complicated it might be to get it. |

Such an anticipated album. Judging from the videos being posted on facebook, it sounds like it's going to be great. Can't wait!

| Finally got my copy. I think all the hype and the long wait has left me with expectations way over the top. Nicely recorded for sure but I'm feeling a tad underwelmed just at the moment. Will need more listens I guess. |
