Skálmöld announce new live album ’10 Year Anniversary – Live In Reykjavík’

SKÁLMÖLD have announced a new live album!

Titled 10 Year Anniversary – Live In Reykjavík, the upcoming live album from the Icelandic folk metal band captures the band’s three sold-out shows at the Gamla Bíó in their hometown Reykjavík, Iceland. The live album will be released in September on CD, DVD & Blu-Ray via Napalm Records.

Speaking about the upcoming live album, the band says, “in late 2009 we started SKÁLMÖLD. Nothing serious. Was just supposed for the pure fun of meeting up once in a while to play some metal music. Fast forward 10 years and we are celebrating the release of 10 YEARS OF SKÁLMÖLD – Live in Reykjavík. Recorded in the heart of Iceland’s capital at one of our three amazing sold out shows. Here is SKÁLMÖLD in its purest form – on stage, feeding on the energy of our beloved fans. We feel really proud and happy to present this to you. Enjoy!”

Alongside the announcement of the live album, the band have released a new live music video for the track Niðavellir.

Continuing to talk about the upcoming live release, the band says, “growing up and slowly beginning to descend into the world of metal music there was one album that really left its mark on my young self: IRON MAIDENLive After Death. At 10 years old, in awe, dreaming that one day I could play in a band, play shows, record it and release for others to enjoy was just that – a dream. But now all these years later my band celebrated 10 years of existence. Five albums and countless shows all over Europe. We just had to capture this moment. So here it is. 10 YEARS OF SKÁLMÖLD – Live in Reykjavík. Here we are doing what we enjoy the most, playing a sweaty sold out show in front of our most dedicated fans. Well that was truly a night to remember. Skál!”
