FEJD To Enter Studio In November/December

August 13, 2009

FEJD, the Swedish folk rock/metal band featuring members of NOSTRADAMEUS and PATHOS, has issued the following update:

"The FEJD plan is to start the recordings of our second full-length album around November or December 2009. We already have most of the songs written and are very excited to enter the studio once again, this time knowing that we have a label who supports us and that we will be able to get our music out to our fans. We are also talking about recording the old 'demo' tracks again as we know lots of people wants them and we play many of the old ones live. This will, in that case, be totally new recordings with some different arrangements on some of them. We don't want to put the old recordings on a CD and just release them as they are because we want the owners of the 'demos' to feel that what they bought is something special and rare.

"We'll come back with more information about the recordings as we get closer to our goal."

FEJD released its full-length debut, "Storm", in March via Napalm Records.

FEJD formed in 2001 through a fusion of the folk music duo RIMMERFORS (featuring brothers Patrik Rimmerfors and Niklas Rimmerfors) and a couple of members from the metal band PATHOS. Rimmerfors played folk music with medieval undertones, performing on contemporary instruments, and together with their childhood friends of PATHOS, the transformed into a refined band with the best of both worlds — the weight of heavy metal in symbiosis with the typical melodic language and sadness of the Nordic folk music.

The brothers' interest in Swedish medieval folk music started back in 1995, commenced by music studying and the feeling of wanting to explore new musical ground and try something new. The brothers' musical background, as well as their bandmates, has its roots in heavy metal music. Inspiration is also drawn from like-minded bands such as GARMARNA and HEDNINGARNA.

Video footage of FEJD performing at this year's Wacken Open Air festival on July 29, 2009 in Wacken, Germany can be viewed below.
