Morgarten releases "To Victory" music video, signs with Inner Wound Recordings
Bro, what the hell kinda bar did I walk into? All I see around me is guys dressed like Friar Tuck, weilding axes and swords while getting sloshed… I’ve never been more pumped but also afraid for my safety like I am now, send help!
Anyways, the Swiss fold/black metal band Morgarten have recently signed to Inner Wound Recordings for the release of their upcoming album Cry of the Lost, set to be released June 18th of this year on CD, limited vinyl and digital platforms. And, like a viking celebration, released a blistering video with chaos ensuing throughout for their song “To Victory”, which marks as the first single off the upcoming album. Check it out below, or click HERE.
In search of battles and victories, Morgarten has been touring Europe since 2005. Besides several short European tours, Morgarten appeared on international festivals, like Occultfest (NL), Brainstorm Festival (NL), Devils Rock For An Angel (BE), Mannried Open Air (CH), Winter Armageddon (DE) and Rise Of Trolls (BE). Also the band was asked as opening-act for Finntroll on their visit to Switzerland in 2018.
Morgarten now returns with their new album Cry of the Lost, which surely won't leave fans of folk- and black metal disappointed! The album was mixed by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Dimmu Borgir, Amon Amarth) and mastered by Tony Lindgren (Opeth, Eluveitie, Sepultura). For the drums Morgarten visited Fascination Street Studios to let David Castillo (Carcass, Opeth, Leprous) handle the recordings.
The result is a high quality release that will please fans of bands like Ensiferum, Eluveitie and Wind Rose. Morgarten proves to be the leading folk- and black metal band from the French speaking part of Switzerland and with their new album Morgarten is ready to march upon the European battlefields once more!
