Search - Vreid :: Pitch Black Brigade

This is the new beast from the Norwegian brigade! England's Terrorizer Magazine called Kraft, the debut album from Norway's Vreid, "a collection of first-class barbed and vitriolic riffs that will tear through your soul like a flail through rare steak." Norway's Scream Magazine added, "the future looks bright for these Norwegians." With Pitch Black Brigade the future is now. Recorded at Studio 1184, mixed at Subsonic Society (Dismember, Susperia, Darkthrone), and mastered at Tailormade by Peter in de Betou (Zyklon) Pitch Black Brigade is a giant leap for the four-piece. Eight new songs each containing the bands bold musicianship. Similar to Kraft, both English and Norwegian lyrics color the grim historical themes taken from various events from the 20th Century that outline PBB. The band are currently completing a video for the album track "Pitch Black." Featuring the remaining members of Windir, disbanded after the tragic death of band founder/leader Valfar (aka Terje Bakken), Vreid (Norwegian for "wrath") have already toured Europe with label mates Enslaved. The band again plans to tour in support of Pitch Black Brigade, with hopes of touching US soil this time round as well.
