Norwegian progressive extreme metallers Enslaved have revealed a tour trailer for their upcoming UK and European tour 'Springrite 2013'.
The tour is in support of their new album 'RIITIIR', which was released on the 1st of October 2012.
Enslaved’s latest album, 'RIITIIR', will once again surprise even those who are familiar with their non-linear development. 'RIITIIR' embodies a lot more of what has come to be known as Enslaved: indefinable and grandiose, honest and unearthly, dark, harsh, and beautiful.
For 'RIITIIR', many elements of the recording process are similar to that of the previous few albums. Again, the team of producers came from within the band itself: Ivar Bjørnson, Grutle Kjellson, Herbrand Larsen – this time completed by Iver Sandøy (who co-produced 2010’s Axioma Ethica Odini, the 7” Thorn EP, and the 12” 'The Sleeping Gods' EP). The core recordings all took place in Bergen, Norway: Ivar Bjørnson’s guitar, Grutle Kjellson’s bass, and Cato Bekkevold’s drums were recorded live in Duper Studios while Herbrand Larsen and Ice Dale recorded their vocals, keys, and guitars in Earshot Studios. Furthermore, Grutle and Ivar’s vocals, guitars, keys, bass pedals, effects, and percussion were recorded in Solslottet Studios and Peersonal Sound. At times, recordings were being done at all three locations simultaneously. The producers travelled to Fascination Street Studios in Örebro, Sweden, where Jens Bogren mixed and Tony Lindgren mastered the album.
“This time it was all about expanding a winning team rather than changing it,” states guitarist, songwriter and founding member Ivar Bjørnson on 'RIITIIR'’s creation process. “I have to personally admit that expanding the producer team to include a member from outside the band has had its massive challenges for me, but the result is without a doubt better than I had ever dreamed of. Once again, we have learned something about finding the ideal recording process for Enslaved, and for that I am eternally grateful to all the involved parties.”
