“Vid Rosornas Grav”, the new video from Swedish metallers FALCONER, will make its online debut in “a few days,” according to the band’s guitarist Stefan Weinerhall. The clip will be made available in two versions: Swedish and English (under the title “By The Roses”). The track comes off the band’s seventh album, “Armod”, which was released in Europe on June 3 via Metal Blade Records. The CD features 11 songs completely sung in Swedish and four bonus tracks that are said to be English versions of the bandmembers’ favorite new songs.
Added Weinerhall: “Let’s see how the fans react to an album entirely in the worldwide spread language Swedish.
“For us it feels good to finally have focused on our native heritage in music, although it could have been even more focused, but, of course, we have to have the familiar FALCONER stuff stuffed in here and there.
“To promote this album in the true FALCONER style, we will take a year off to do other things.”

On February 5 a huge release party was held in BULLET‘s hometown of Växjö. The event was totally sold out, with almost 1,000 people attending, and the band delivered a classic rock show, finishing off with singer Hell Hofer “sawing off” the arm of a guy playing keyboards. In true BULLET spirit, specially made BULLET beer and hot dogs were served.
BULLET recently completed a 20-date European trek, which includes shows in Germany, Holland, England, Poland, Austria, Switzerland and Belgium.
