Eluveitie first part of album cover revealed/first single announced!

Eight years after melodic death/folk metal masters ELUVEITIE released their acoustic album »Evocation I«, the Swiss musicians have stored their electronic instruments away again in the rehearsal room. »Evocation II - Pantheon« will be released August 18th via Nuclear Blast Records.

Today, the band reveal the first part of the new cover artwork. The next parts will be released tomorrow and Thursday on the Facebook page of the band. The first single of the new album, 'Epona', will be released on Friday June 9th, together with the complete cover artwork.

“The time feels right to go on with »Evocation II«! It’s time for the album,” tells mastermind Chrigel, who revived the great concept after three successful albums in the usual ELUVEITIE style. »Evocation II« conjures another time travel to eras long gone. As the title already reveals, the concept of the first opus will continue and is entirely dedicated to the Celtic mythology. Even more, »Evocation II« takes you into the Gallic pantheon and bows down to the Celtic Gods after which the song titles are named. Anyone who will join ELUVEITIE on this journey will quickly notice that the character of each song is equal to the one of the God the song is about - and there is a lot more to discover!

Stay tuned!
