TAAKE CELEBRATES 20 YEARS OF TRUE NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL WITH DOUBLE ALBUM RELEASE. NEW TRACK DEBUTED

Having started the band way back in 1993, main man Hoest will celebrate 20 years of staying true to his musical identity by releasing a 20-song, 2 CD collection of TAAKE rarities. The anniversary album will be released on Dark Essence Records on the 1st of March in Norway and the 4th of March world-wide to coincide with a planned European tour which will herald the start of a year celebrating TAAKE's unique contribution to Norwegian Black Metal.

Titled "Gravkamre, Kroner og Troner" (Burial Chambers, Crowns and Thrones), the release will not only feature exclusive new tracks, but also rare and previously unreleased material as well as alternative versions and recordings that have, until now, only been available on vinyl. “Et Pust av Oeyne”, a track from the album, has been debuted on the TAAKE SoundCloud page and can be heard here or below.
