This is a sampler featuring a bunch
of indie bands,
featuring the track "Onward"
from Legacy Of Emptiness.
February
21st:
We are well into the recording of the follow-up to our debut album "Nightmare Diaries". Most guitar
tracks are done, and later the rest; drums, bass, keyboards and vocals, will follow. We plan to finish the recording some
time in May, and use Spring to find a label to release the album after the Summer. We also will try to get a few gigs in Norway
this Fall, and maybe/hopefully head for a new visit to Europe early next year.
Meanwhile you can download the massive
60 track compilation "World Of Glass compilation", compiled by Alexis Croze and Raquel Senra. 60 tracks
by female fronted metal bands in all kinds of genres, among them you'll find a re-recorded version of "Out Of The Dark
And Into The Night", which originally appeared on "Nightmare Diaries". This new version also includes a nice
shredding solo by our stand in guitarist from our trip to Holland last Autumn; Hans Christian "HC" Hagen. So what
are you waiting for? Go to World Of Glass to download
the compilation now, it's completely free!
December 20th:
Ok,
we now have 11 or 12 songs more or less finished, we just need a band meeting to agree upon the last details, then it's time
for recording. We will probably have 50 - 60 minutes of music on the album, meaning 9 - 10 songs, thus have a couple of tracks
to discard to make sure we end up with nothing but DAMN AMAZING SONGS. Sounds good? The goal is to have the album out in late
Summer/early Autumn 2012. We also want to wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
October 1st: Barely two weeks left until we hit the road and aim for Germany and Holland!
And we got news for you, most are good, but also one bad one. Guitarist Tor Arvid Larsen has been prevented
from joining us on the tour, but instead of cancelling it, we have been graced by the talent of Hans Christian "HC"
Hagen, and even if he has a conciderable amount of songs to learn in a very short time we are confident that he will
do a great job! Also we have some surprises for you if you show up at one of the gigs, either in Berlin (Musichall),
Roermond (Azijnfabriek) or Amsterdam (The Cave); what it is will remain a secret until you
are there, but what we can say is that EVERYONE will get a small treat made just for this little tour. Also you will have
the chance to do a decision for us, and if that wasn't enough we MIGHT hand out a few free gifts if we're in a good mood!
So what do you say, see you soon?
September
14th: A long time
in silence, but finally some news. We will head for the European motorways once again; in mid-October we will, together with
the Venezuelan goth metal band Bleeding Tears, play three gigs in Germany and Holland. These are: October 14th - Musichall, Berlin, Germany October 15th - Azijnfabriek,
Roermond, Holland October
16th - The Cave, Amsterdam, Holland
More info will follow!
June 29th: June 16th: Now the self titled debut album from Legacy Of Emptiness is available, both from
the label and the band. Send a mail to legacyofemptiness(at)gmail(dot)com if you want to order directly from the band, payment
can be done via Paypal, or to Norwegian bank account. You can also check out a couple of the songs on Myspace or Facebook. You can of course also order from Ketzer records in Germany. May
29th:
So it is time for
a long awaited and needed update.
First and most important; change in line-up. Our
bassist since 2003, Anton Dead, moved to Oslo, 250 km's away from the rest of the band, almost two years ago, and since then
it's been difficult to keep the desired rehearsal schedule, so now, before we for real start work on the songs for our next
album, we needed to improve the situation the band had been stuck in, as it became impossible to continue this way. The
replacement is already on board and is an old friend of us. His name is Jarl Ivar Brynhildsvoll,
so we are already a fully operational live band again. We welcome him in the band and hope you will too!
Speaking
of that, our first live appearance in nearly a year is also something of the past. Only two songs performed, but one
of them, the brand new track "There Is No Birth And Death", can be viewed on our Youtube channel!
Also we are in the early stages of planning a European tour this Autumn, which
hopefully will take us to Denmark, Germany, Holland, Belgium and France. If all goes well we'll share the majority of the
gigs with Bleeding Tears, a gothic symphonic metal band from Venezuela.
That should be all for now, exciting times are ahead for Ancestral Legacy, hope
you will join us!
May 16th: No update in a very long time, but shure
stuff is happening in the AL camp! We'll be back with a HUGE update very shortly after our appearance at Arendal Rockklubb's
30 years anniversary gig which will take place May 27th. So be shure to check back then!
January
29th: We've uploaded an acoustic version of (1/3 of the song) "Perhaps In Death"
from our "Nightmare Diaries" album to out Youtube channel, so go and check it out! Also a new review is published, on the French music blog Musical Ambrosia, so obviously it's in French. Enjoy"
January 15th:
An interview with
Eddie, dealing with all kinds of music related matters, is done by the webzine Metality, go check it out!
