Dark Essence Records Debuts Track From Upcoming Slegest Album

With a release date for SLEGEST’s debut full-length album “Løyndom” set for the 7th October, Dark Essence Records has today previewed a track from what will be the debut album from former VREID guitarist Ese.   “Ho Som Haustar Aleine” is the opening track from “Løyndom” and can be heard below.

Recorded partly in Ese’s own Systrond Studio and partly at the Conclave and Earshot Studio with producer Bjørnar E. Nilsen, and mastered by ENSLAVED’s Herbrand Larsen, “Løyndom” (Secret), is a mix of classic heavy rock and old school black metal that has an distinctly down and dirty, and addictively catchy,  groove running through it.  Track listing for “Løyndom” as follows:

1. Ho Som Haustar Aleine
2. Rooted In Knowledge
3. I Slike Stunder
4. Løgna Sin Fiende
5. The Path Of No Return
6. Faceless Queen
7. Dirt Life Death
8. Past Burden Strength

SLEGEST

When, following his departure from VREID where he played on four albums,  Ese formed SLEGEST in 2010, his original  intention was that it should be a solo project, and,  indeed,  apart from a guest solo by former VREID band-mate Sture, Ese  plays all the instruments himself on “Løyndom”.  However, it soon became clear to everyone who heard the album that SLEGEST was a live band waiting to happen, and a live line-up has now been put together, which, apart from Ese on Vocals and Rhythm Guitars, consists of  Sør (BÄÄÄV, VONBRÅTEN) on Lead Guitars, Hövard (BOMBEKLÜCHTER)  on Bass and Fjøsne on Drums.    

SLEGEST is also busy putting the finishing touches to a music video for “Ho Som Haustar Aleine”.  Produced by Håvard Nesbø and Ørjan Talle, the video will premiere before the release of “Løyndom”.
