GRÁ: Debuts First Single "Krig" At Invisible Oranges; Upcoming Album "Väsen" Out This April 27

Swedish black metal group GRÁ will be releasing their highly anticipated third album "Väsen" through Carnal Records at the tail end of April, 2018.

INVISIBLE ORANGES premieres the first single "Krig" from the upcoming opus, it can be streamed AT THIS LOCATION

"Listening to this is akin to rediscovering black metal all over again."  — Jon Rosenthal, Invisible Oranges

Heljarmadr the vocalist/guitarist quotes: "We decided to let the fans decide which track to release as the first single of our new album "Väsen". They went for "Krig" which is a good representative for the essence of the album. It's one of the slower tracks but has the intensity intact which flows throughout the whole album. It's also the longest track and we're pretty sure that older fans will feel completely at home with it. Enjoy! "

GRÁ was founded in 2010 by Heljarmadr (Dark Funeral, Cursed 13, Domgård) and Dimman in Stockholm. In a time where many bands want to be compared with their idols, GRÁ walks a different path where exploration and breaking new grounds are the keystones. That is the greatest tribute to the past, to walk your own path and be a leader, not a follower of trends.

Upon two albums and numerous short releases, it is now time for the third album, “Väsen”. It is also time to follow up on the previously successful tours around Europe, starting with the Eradication Festival in Cardiff, Wales in May 2018.

"Väsen" marks a new era for GRÁ. Free from the concept of the previous releases, GRÁ returns with an album more varied than ever and with the will to explore outside the borders of the narrow-minded so called black metal scene where most seem to have forgotten to include the part that makes it BLACK. Shepherded by the inhumane, raspy voice, the opus "Väsen" offers the co-existence of momentous harmonies and horrisonant riffs, spasmodic appearances of ghastly keyboard textures, penetrating mid-paced drumming and vein vibrating basslines. Sustaining the ethos of the classic black metal forces, the Swedish entity plumps for unworldly songwriting structures, full of vim and vigor, at the same time unadulteratedly malignant.

"Väsen" will be released through Swedish label Carnal Records on CD & Digital formats on April 27, LP will be out this Fall 2018.

Jag är mörkret som segrar över vett och förstånd Jag är dunklet från avgrundens djupaste vrå Jag är tanken som krupit under ditt bleka skinn Jag är dåren som spottar på allt Knivar som jagar i natten Sprungna ur åldriga sår Likt ett rovdjur som följer i dunklet Har jag hemsökt dig år efter år För jag är elden som anlagts i ditt snustorra skjul Jag är hatet som flammar och blodet som rusar igen Jag är din skugga Jag ser död överallt Jag är din önskan Så ramsvart och kall Likt gastar ur ett svunnet liv Ett anrop från en annan tid Jag bjuder grav jag bjuder död Jag bjuder svält men inget bröd Jag är din skugga Jag ser död överallt Jag är din önskan Så ramsvart och kall ENGLISH TRANSLATION: I am the darkness that conquers over prudence and reason I am the gloom from the deepest corner of the abyss I am the thought that's been crawling under your pale skin I am the madman who spit upon everything Knives that hunt in the night Born from ancient wounds Like a beast that hunts in the gloom I've been haunting you year after year For I am the fire that's been set up in your bone dry shed I am the hate that is burning and the blood that is rushing again I am your shadow I see Death everywhere I am your desire So raven black and cold Like ghosts from a long gone life A call from another time I offer grave I offer death I offer hunger but no bread I am your shadow I see Death everywhere I am your desire So raven black and cold --- Links of interest: Official website: http://grahorde.com/ Grá on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/graofficial/ Grá on Spotify: http://open.spotify.com/artist/5c81a4...
