FROM DARKTHRONE: 

 

How about one more video before the album is released tomorrow? PRESENTING ..... “THE BIRD PEOPLE OF NORDLAND”
Ahead of the eagerly awaited new album ‘It Beckons Us All’, the band give fans a final tease of what is awaiting them with the release of the official video for “The Bird People Of Nordland”.
Video created by Matthew Vickerstaff
From Fenriz - "This is Ted's song so a bit hard for me to comment on it musically but I will tell you all what I think when I hear it:
First of we have a typical grim Ted riff for the verse, then he surprises with a catchy riff for the refrain AND THEN comes my fave part of the album; the post-refrain riff which sounds like Queensryche 1984 style and you can also hear how much we enjoy to play it! EXACTLY where I want to be! Could have played that riff for 8 minutes straight, haha! This loops again with the refrain again without singing and then back to Queensryche '84. Then first riff again with my added harmony guitar playing on it, what our studio man Ole Øvstedal called "the Corleone part".
A break arrives and then things are sped up (not faster than Yardbirds in 64, we are not an extreme metal band, more like MODERAT EPIC) which corresponds with a slower heavy metal riff where we also brought out the mellotrone if I remember correctly.
Then Ted bombs you with a final part, primitive d-beat thrash with a riff that sounds like Tom G Warrior made it and I also ordered Ted to lay on some hellish guitars. Anyway, I LIVE for that Queensrÿche 84 riff, Ted!"
