CHRIS WICKED

Norway’s Chris Wicked released “Aleine”, on November 13. Now the remix of this song is here. The song, which features Gaahl (Gaahls Wyrd, ex-Gorgoroth, Trelldom etc) on guest vocals is the title track of the upcoming debut album scheduled to drop early next year through Apollon Records.

“Aleine” which means “Alone” is a catchy dark rock song where you’ll hear Gaahls haunting vocals underneath Chris’ melodic voice. You can now listen to the song (lyric video) here:

Chris Wicked is best known for his work with Malice in Wonderland, where he released several albums, EP’s and singles and toured the world. Now, Chris is reinventing himself, composing dark atmospheric, yet melodic songs and singing in his own language. Together with guitarist Rune Nordahl-Pedersen, bassist Eskil Sæter and drummer Marius Mathisen, Chris Wicked is now ready to release brand new music. Helping on the recordings the band invites friends, like Gaahl (Gaahls Wyrd), Hoest (Taake, Gorgoroth), Niklas Kvarforth (Shining) and V’gandr (Helheim) to collaborate, and the sound is quite stunning.

The new single from Norwegian dark rock artist CHRIS WICKED entitled “Når Allting Svartner” (When everything turns black) will officially be released on August 17. However the song that features Shining‘s NIKLAS KVARFORTH on guest vocals and Taake‘s frontman HOEST, on bass guitar can now be streamed here:

Chris Wicked is best known for his work with Malice In Wonderland, were he released several albums, EP’s and singles and toured the world. Now, Chris is reinventing himself, composing dark atmospheric songs and singing in Norwegian and “Når Allting Svartner” is the second single from the Bergen based artist. The first single “Bare deg og meg og natten” was released earlier this year.

“When I wrote “Når Allting Svartner” I immediately wanted to have Niklas Kvarforth sing on it. I’m really fond of his voice and thought it would fit perfectly with him singing in Swedish. Luckily he was up for it and I’m really pleased with the result. When it comes to Hoest, he is a longtime friend and we always wanted to collaborate, and with this project it felt really natural to do so. He truly understands my vision and contribute on several of the songs” says Chris Wicked
