Limited edition gatefold Dupla bakelit lemez 2LP kiadvány, 2014.
Carnal Records have set the 8th of August as the date for the release of a limited edition splatter vinyl of „Längtan”, the third full-length album from Sweden’s VANHELGA. Strictly limited to 300 copies, the vinyl edition of „Längtan” features artwork by the Spanish artist Juanjo Castellano on the gatefold cover, whilst the thirteen-track disc itself comes in blue splatter and includes the bonus Burzum cover track „Black Spell of Destruction”.
Formed in Linköping, Sweden, in 2001, and most frequently described as a DSBM band, it is not easy to pin down the exact genre in which to fit VANHELGA‘s music. The band’s name itself means „Profane”, and its musicians have found the perfect vehicle through which to express the dark and disturbing emotions that inhabit their, often twisted, minds.
The lineup of founder J. Ottosson, aka 145188 (ex-LIFELOVER – live session musician), ex-SKOGSTRON) on Bass, Guitars and Vocals, J. Gabrielson (ESKAPI, ex-LIVELOVER) on Vocals, J. Ejnarsson (TAKETH) and Wadström (ex-SKOGSTRON) on guitars and D. Franzén on drums, create a sound that whilst being as cold and sinister as their collective backgrounds and psyches would suggest, also has moments of melancholy, which led one reviewer to say of „Längtan”.
„It’s not often that you can describe a black metal release as beautiful, but that’s exactly what Längtan, the latest offering from Sweden’s Vanhelga is.” The digipack edition of „Längtan” was released on Art of Propagnda earlier this year.
