Varg announce new album ‘Ewige Wacht’
VARG have announced a new album!
Titled Ewige Wacht, the upcoming album from the German metal band is the follow-up to 2020’s Zeichen, and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Napalm Records.
Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist Freki says, “Ewige Wacht is both our most emotional and strongest album. It is a journey through Nordic mythology that tells of old stories and the protection and preservation of the flame of our ancestors. Traditions and values like family, fortitude and desire are like a common thread running through the entire record. Uncompromising harshness meets epic and sustaining melodies. Authentically raw production and yet more powerful and mighty than ever. This album will pierce the hearts of our fans, because it comes deeply from ours.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming new album; Immer Treu. Speaking about the new song, vocalist Fylgja says, “Immer Treu is a song that stands for many things. For fortitude, strength and loyalty. But it also underlines that hate, based on different views like for example in terms of religion, is absolutely bad and senseless. In the end we are all the same and should accept and respect each other. It stands for the freedom to be what we want to be.”
