Enslaved release new music video for ‘Forest Dweller’
ENSLAVED have released a new music video!
The new music video, for the track Forest Dweller, is taken from the Norwegian progressive black metal band’s upcoming new album, Heimdal, which is scheduled to be released in March this year.
Speaking about the new song, vocalist Grutle Kjellson says, “to me Forest Dweller was the most immediate song on the album, at least in its earliest form as an instrumental demo. I spent quite some time to get into some of the other songs of the album, but this one seemed somehow logical, well logical by ENSLAVED standards that is. I had an idea for a lyric, and Ivar’s amazing and diverse riffs on this one made it easy to pan out the scripture. I made a rough plan on what to sing over it, and we actually ended up using some parts of those recordings on the album!
The song sort of showcases our representative samples of inspiration: LED ZEPPELIN, GENESIS, DESTRUCTION, IRON MAIDEN and DAVID BOWIE, to mention a schizophrenic tapestry of influences. It mirrors in the lyrics as well, which deals about both darkness and light in connection to the nature of Heimdal.”

Heimdal is set for release on March 3rd via Nuclear Blast. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
