TYR

New song streaming online

Faroese Viking metallers TÝR have updated their MySpace page to stream another new track, 'Northern Gate'. Check it out at this location. Týr's new album, By The Light Of The Northern Star, is due out in Europe on May 29th through Napalm Records.

Says the label, "On By The Light Of The Northern Star, the Faroese band delivers catchy yet technically brilliant tracks, and once again demonstrates how to impressively unite the contemporary present with the mythological past. Traditional homeland melodies, Viking choruses, and classic heavy metal songs, such as 'Hold The Heathen Hammer High'. or even the title track, offer fans new and powerful hymns.

Responsible for the brilliance of this "Northern Star" is once again frontman and mastermind Heri Joensen, who provides an undisputed goose bump factor with his clean and majestic vocals. By The Light Of The Northern Star offers Viking Metal that only Týr can forge. Follow the North Star to Asgard!"
