Ah, to be young...

Our american friends are soon launching a Kickstart campaign to make the Northern Gate Musical a reality.

I don’t know if you’ve noticed the guys wearing shirts that say Northern Gate and if any of you wondered what was that.

See, the Northern Gate project is aiming to put on stage a musical based on the Færeyinga Saga, the story of the conquest of the Faroe Islands and the music of Týr. And they are asking for our help. If you want to support them, in two days the campaign will be launched, you can follow them on Facebook so you know where to click ;)

Btw, the Northern Gate logo was designed by our Terji :P

From Heri’s facebook

Jacob Hansen has cleared and authorised us to start recording the guitars for the next Týr album!

We have sent him a few test recordings over the last few weeks and he has checked the quality. We have now reached a working method that allows us to record raw guitar signal in high enough quality.

This time we are recording the guitars and basses at home, in our own makeshift studios. Hopefully we will be able to do the same with the vocals, but that remains to be seen.

It takes some practise and some equipment, not all of it very cheap either. Some of the songs are still at the writing stage, and some of the songs are finished.

We have split the songwriting more even this time. Terji has written six songs, I have written six songs and Gunnar has written two. We expect there to be twelve songs on the standard issue, and fourteen on a special edition. But that will be up to the label, Metal Blade Records.

No lyrics are written as of yet, but we have a general theme, and possibly even a name, for the album. And I have pages upon pages of notes, quotes and anecdotes that I hope to turn into the lyrics for the new Týr album.

Stay tuned for updates!

So... NEW ALBUM YAY! About time too!

Apologies for the theme! It’s the first time i try to make a theme from scratch, so there are some funky things here and there :P i decided to leave it like this, is not as hopelessly crappy as it was when i was testing it out :D Will fix the funky stuff later!
