Ob 30. obletnici delovanja so se italijanski black metalci Frostmoon Eclipse odločili, da znova posnamejo prvenec Gathering the Dark.

Danska black metal zasedba Solbrud je po 15 letih delovanja in štirih albumih prenehala delovati. Vzrok naj bi bil pomanjkanje motivacije, spodaj pa lahko preberete izjavo banda v celoti.

»Time for some sad news everyone: We have decided to end all activities with Solbrud and are disbanding now. Sorry to disappoint you all but it's the end of the road for us.

The reasons are many - in short we just can't really find the spirit and motivation required to keep this ship running the way it's supposed to. Until recently we had big plans for an upcoming album with David showing the rest of the world what a good match he was with Solbrud. But eventually we couldn’t find the energy to go through with it. We know that David at the moment is working on a solo project and hope y’all will give it a spin when it comes out.

"Alas, there will be no more touring, shows or farewell concerts this time around. We are hosting a big sale at our bandcamp shop to clear out our storage - Come make a good deal while the stock still lasts.

Solbrud has been a 15-year long journey with many profound experiences, highs and lows for us all. Can't really think of anything we would trade it for. We want to extend our gratitude to all you who have listened to the music and supported us through the years. Can't describe in words what it means to us. A special thank you goes to Stefan Klose / Vendetta Records, Peter Mesnickow / Moondrop and Anders Wind / Bullet booking. Feel free to share with us your best Solbrud related moments and add to the nostalgia. All the best.«
