Kirjoittanut Jyri Kinnari - 15.12.2014

enslavedNorjalaisen metalliyhtye Enslavedin uuden ”In Times” -albumin julkaisuajankohdaksi on varmistunut 6.3.2015 ja se tullaan julkaisemaan Nuclear Blastin kautta. ”In Times” on Enslavedin kolmastoista albumi. Yhtyeen edellinen albumi ”RIITIIR” julkaistiin vuonna 2012.

Yhtyeen kitaristi Ivar Bjørnson kommentoi levyä seuraavasti:

”I was so deep into the songs and ideas for such a long time (or have my head so far up my own ass, if you prefer more direct language) that it is hard to have any ’opinions’ about them that is anything else than the high-flying mumbo-jumbo of the introvert songsmith. The songs are extensions of my inner and outer life, the thoughts I am aware of having, as well as those that lie too deep to register in everyday consciousness. The songs are the resounds of grandiose altered states and mundane tiny micro-events. In addition, they are, of course, also the result of inspiration from other music and art. I do think this new album is the most consistent body of work we have so far: It incorporates our ’blacker’ past with our influences from prog rock, our present sense of absolute freedom, and the joy of being in this band, if that makes any sense… Ha, ha, ha. It is higher in energy, more aggressive, yet more beautiful and subtle. It simply sounds inspired.”
