Oddarrang Unveil New Single Admiral Byrd's Flight

Wednesday, 24 August 2016 Written by Laura Johnson

Oddarrang have unveiled a new single, Admiral Byrd's Flight.

The track will feature on the Finnish quintet's fourth album, 'Agartha', which is due out on September 23 via Edition Records. Discussing it, cellist-vocalist Osmo said:

"Admiral Byrd's Flight differs from all the previous Oddarang songs, since it’s the first track ever that features lyrics. I was on tour when I composed it and it started out with a guitar riff I was jamming, while I was backstage, waiting for the soundcheck. First I thought it might be a song better suited for some other project, but after a while it started to feel like an Oddarrang song. It didn’t have lyrics yet though. We recorded the track as an instrumental, but when Olavi came up with the idea of making a concept album about the legend of Agartha, I read the story about Admiral Richard E. Byrd - US Navy pilot who supposedly found the entrance to 'Hollow Earth' on February 19th 1947, while exploring Antarktis - I felt the song needed some lyrics."
 

The band will head to the UK for a one-off London show on November 18. Tickets are on sale.
