Album Description

«It doesn't get much more beautiful than this», wrote Norwegian magazine Ballade about the title track «Kilden». There is both light and darkness on folk music trio Østerlide's second studio album "Kilden." Vocal and chimes whirl around shimmering droplets of guitar notes, like sunlight on water. Bright and ethereal soundscapes give way to driving guitar riffs and percussion at full throttle. We are served blood-drenched stories from the darkest Middle Ages, miracles and ghosts, love and deep longing for Heaven. At the center are the indestructible and timeless folk melodies that have been shaped and honed through the centuries. When these melodies and stories are reshaped in Østerlide's sonic landscapes, they are given new shades of color, light and shadow. But at the core they are still the same; both new and old at the same time. TARE03CD Recording, mix and mastering: Vidar Lunden, Musikkloftet Coverart and layout: Elin T. Eriksen Supported by: FFUK and Arts Council Norway
