\nIn celebration of its upcoming North American release this Tuesday, Metal Army America is currently streaming VREID\u2019s Welcome Farewell in its entirety for a limited time! Fittingly crowned \u201cenergetic, infectious, virulently catchy, and furiously, belligerently aggressive,\u201d by No Clean Singing, Welcome Farewell was recorded at bassist Hv\u00e1ll\u2019s own Studio 1184 and is set for North American release via Indie Recordings, March 5, 2013.

\nFormed in 2004 following the demise of \u2018\u2019Sognametal\u201d legends Windir and described by Metal Hammer UK as a \u201cunique time-travel in metal,\u201d VREID seamlessly merge the prime tenets of \u201870s rock, \u201880s classic metal and Norwegian black metal into a difficult-to-pinpoint, expertly arranged sound implosion. Notorious for their well-researched, historically-inspired lyrics, the band\u2019s third and fourth offerings, I Krig and Milorg, were both concept albums based around the liberation work in Norway during World War II. Liberation was also the keyword on VREID\u2019s last offering, V, but placed in a broader historical\/philosophic perspective. The lyrics on Welcome Farewell describe a lifecycle through a series of short stories, seen from an existential point of view and, inspired by Hv\u00e1ll\u2019s own local community with its nature, architecture and historical artists such as Arne Garborg and Otto Valstad, are more personal than ever before.
