GALAR - De Gjenlevende LP (Black Vinyl) (Pre-order)

Ships before August 29th 2025.

Norwegian melodic Black/Folk Metal classic finally available on vinyl! This edition limited to 150 copies.

Following the success of “Til Alle Heimsens Endar” (2010), Bergen’s Galar returned with their third full length “De Gjenlevende”, a sweeping, symphonic Black Metal journey, now reissued on vinyl.

Recorded at Concleave & Earshot Studios with Bjørnar E. Nilsen, the album continues Galar’s fusion of harsh, melodic Black Metal with rich Nordic Folk elements. Featuring Phobos (Aeternus, Gravdal) on drums and contributions from a string quintet and horn quartet, the sound is both massive and intricate.

Lyricist Jorge Blutaar weaves a concept rooted in Pan-European folklore, where winter symbolizes death, frailty, and introspection, only to give way to the hope and renewal of spring. A reflection on the eternal cycle of decay and rebirth.

“De Gjenlevende” stands as Galar’s most epic and intense work, monumental in both sound and vision. Finally available on vinyl, as it was always meant to be heard.
