Runemagick

könnt ich theoretisch auch in den doomthread stellen, aber hier ist eh weniger los.

Announcement #32: This one is very special to us. We have been trying for years to get this all time favorite Swedish doom/death band to come and play “Gloomy Sunday”, but the answer was always no… But this year something had changed and they finally agreed to come and play KTDF despite being in a state of hibernation since 2005! We are extremely proud to be able to announce that RUNEMAGICK will be playing their first show in 13 years at this years KTDF!!!!

The band has planned to do a few shows during 2018 and the first booked is Kill-Town Death Fest VI. The live line-up will be Nicklas Rudolfsson – guitar & vocals, Emma Rudolfsson – bass, Daniel Moilanen – drums and Jonas Blom – guitar. There are also plans to record new material in the form of a full-length titled “Evoked From Abysmal Sleep” and release it on vinyl via Aftermath Music and bandcamp in time for KTDF!!!

To those of you unfamiliar with Runemagick; a dark death metal band from Sweden, formed in the early 90’s. The band has been in hibernation since 2005 until now in 2018 when the runes got evoked from a long abysmal Sleep!

Started in late 1990 with mid-tempo death/doom/black kind of metal style inspired by old death and black metal bands like Celtic Frost, Bathory, Autopsy, Hellhammer, Tiamat… First official lineup was Nicklas Rudolfsson (also in Heavydeath, The Funeral Orchestra and more bands/projects) and Robert Pehrsson (also in Death Breath, Robert Pehrsson’s Humbucker and more bands/projects). The music has developed over the years as a result of many lineup changes, many recording sessions and releases.

With the album “Darkness Death Doom” (recorded 2002) and current line-up, Runemagick finally shaped an “own style” and forged the formulas of darkness, death and doom -metallic sounds, influenced by old death/black metal roots mixed with mid/slow heavy groove and apocalyptic soundscapes.

The lineup has been stable since fall of 2002 with Nicklas Rudolfsson – guitars & voice, Emma Rudolfsson – bass and Daniel Moilanen (also in Heavydeath and Katatonia) on drums. Enter the realm of darkness, death and doom…

ich hab mit der Band bislang nichts am Hut gehabt, aber nachdem der Herr Gunnar die nun unabhängig auch wieder mal gedropped hat, habe ich hier anscheinend eine Bildungslücke.

Our new album "Evoked From Abysmal Sleep" OUT NOW on LP, CD, MC, Download and Streaming!

A few years ago, there were no plans to record new music or play live. But things can change. And who knows, maybe it can add flavor to future inspiration and currents from the power of the dark runes...

We hope you will like the album!

Besides that we release a new album "Into Desolate Realms" on High Roller Records, a split with Chthonic Deity on Parasitic Records etc during the year we have also worked with several labels on reissues.

During the years we were in hibernation (ca 2007-2017), we have not bothered us much about the request on vinyl versions, out of stock cd, tapes, re-releases or merchandise. So we are now trying to catch up with inquiries.

2019 will be an active year for Runemagick reissues. We have tried to improve all reissues with new remastering and in many cases previously unreleased bonus tracks.

Although we are a small band, we want the music to be available in the formats that our listeners want. Of course, it's not about making money because we don't.

With this we hope to satisfy all our old fans who have been waiting for a long time but also new ones. We are very grateful that there are people who like what we create. Thank you so much for your support!!

In August, Hammerheart Records releases "Darkness Death Doom" DLP vinyl (with bonus tracks) and "On Funeral Wings" DLP vinyl. Both remastered by Raven Noise Studio.

More reissues will be announced.
To be continued...
