FABIENNE ERNI is a well-known singer, the vocalist of Eluveitie and Illumishade – one of the most famous Swiss bands in the modern world of metal.
The ladies will meet online on the Imperial Age YouTube channel to discuss various topics which include:
Music & the music industry
Their backgrounds
Their personal plans for the rest of the year
The plans of their bands
And, of course, fans will be able to post questions and get answers in real time!
Swiss metal force ELUVEITIE are happy to announce that they are teaming up with Kult Management.
ELUVEITIE mastermind, Chrigel Glanzmann comments, “Times are weird and the metal scene has been unusually quiet the last few months. Have we been brought to our knees though? Hell no, nothing could be further from reality! While we were forced to pause our live activity we’ve gathered momentum all the more. Strengthened, energized and creatively inspired we’re currently working on new music for you! And above that we have regrouped and are eager to attack! We’re absolutely stoked to inform you that we’ve joined forces with Angela Gossow’s renowned Kult Management. And together with them and our long-year partners Nuclear Blast Records and Believe Digital plus Cobra Agency and Solver Productions we feel we’re one hell of a troop! You better watch out!”
Angela Gossow further adds, “We are thrilled to be representing ELUVEITIE moving forward! One of Switzerland’s finest metal exports who are hungry to step it up! We are going to dominate the future – ELUVEITIE’s time has come!”
ELUVEITIE are a phenomenon that has been spreading over the world for more than 15 years. Starting with their legendary debut album “Spirit” (2006), across the outstanding “Slania” (2008) to their last masterpiece “Ategnatos” (2019), the Swiss have developed a groundbreaking recipe.
The hit density of their band history is proven at live shows particularly. This will be caught on record once more in 2019. “Live At Masters Of Rock” is ELUVEITIE‘s first live album in their new line up and with songs from their current work “Ategnatos” will be out on November 1st, 2019 via Nuclear Blast Records.
The Swiss Folk Metal institution presented their extraordinary ability to combine stirring music with the mystical and philosophical essence of Celtic mythology, Gallic history, and proto-European culture into one groundbreaking sound at this memorable performance once again. The result is a masterly spectacle that leads through the epochal band history like a raging storm and leads fans and sightseers to immerse deeply into the musical cosmos of the Swiss. Be it songs like “Ategnatos” and “Rebirth” or earlier hits like “Helvetios” or “King” – the implementation is breathtaking. The really big numbers of ELUVEITIE are not missing in the setlist as well, of course: Everybody can now enjoy at home the unbeatable energy that the band develops on “The Call Of The Mountains” or “Inis Mona”.
The band states: “We’ve always been a passionate live band! But in the last 2 years we have continuously and relentlessly worked on our live performance, more than ever, and massively enhanced our complete live production! We’re quite proud of it and we really wanna share it with all of our fans!”

01. Ategnatos

After triumphantly storming the worldwide charts with new album »Ategnatos«, the Swiss folk metal superstars ELUVEITIE have premiered an official lyric video for the track “Worship”, watch it below:
Chrigel Glanzmann comments: “Here you go with our second lyric video for a song from our brand new album ATEGNATOS!It’s the second part of the two-song cycle of THE SLUMBER and WORSHIP! A radical song with drastic lyrics on a severe topic: The ancient Celtic Sesroneos myth, in which our modern societies can and probably should reflect themselves as much as the people in ancient times could! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do and find some food for thought in it! Special thanks to Randy Blythe of LAMB OF GOD for an excellent performance!”
»Ategnatos« has entered the charts all over the world, including a #3 position in their home country, Switzerland and #11 in Germany.

Recordings of »Ategnatos« took place in their beloved New Sound Studio with their engineer of choice Tommy Vetterli. “Yet it was radically different as we only had four weeks to record this time around – as compared to the eight weeks we had for ‘Origins’.” By taking mixing duties to the skilled hand of renowned studio wizard Jens Bogren in his Fascination Street Studios in Örebro, Sweden, ELUVEITIE returned to the very spot where they mixed their now legendary »Slania« album more than ten years ago.
With »Ategnatos«, the dedicated nine-piece not only worked with a real string quartet (a premiere!) and granted Fabienne Erni’s sublime mastery of the harp the room it deserved; they also undertook a holistic upgrade resulting in some of the most catchy, most aggressive or most epic tunes the Swiss Metal nobility has ever offered.
Swiss folk metal stars ELUVEITIE are going to release their new studio album »Ategnatos« on April 5th2019 via Nuclear Blast. Today, the band presents the second track-by-track video. Check it and find out more about the songs ‘The Raven Hill’, ‘The Silvern Glow’, ‘Ambiramus’ and ‘Mine Is The Fury’:
ELUVEITIE already released the new single ‘Ambiramus’. The song can be heard and watched in the form of a music video over on YouTube. The music video was produced by the Polish company Grupa13 in January 2019 and can be seen here: https://youtu.be/hFa2M1QW6UI
Chrigel Glanzmann states: “Here you go – the next single off our upcoming album: AMBIRAMUS! It’s definitely one of the most exceptional songs from our discography! AMBIRAMUS comes in quite groovy and with a light-hearted, yet racing folk reel in the chorus and a very accessible overall appearance; easily the brightest song we’ve ever written. Yet at the same time it goes to where the actual magic of traditional Celtic folk music exists: a place where cheerfulness and melancholy, hardship and hope, glee and deep mysticism meet to become one! And this deep, wistful yet hopefull mysticism is also found in the song’s lyrics, which will take you to the very core of the Celtic mythology the album contemplates. AMBIRAMUS (gaulish for “Voyage”) is based on a late Celtic literary tradition – the so-called Immrama tales. AMBIRAMUS is the last song we wrote for the album and it’s probably the result of and a testimony to the very inspiring and creative atmosphere, in which we created ATEGNATOS! The song basically ‘fell into place’ after Alain finished the drum tracking, and it was written and arranged in just a few hours. We hope you enjoy it!”
Recently, Swiss folk metal leaders ELUVEITIE also announced a European tour. The bandwill join forces with the legendary metal-act LACUNA COIL from Italy and the nu-metal-newcomcers INFECTED RAINfrom Moldavia.
