Enslaved have released a stream of their new single Heimvegen.
It features on the Norwegian outfit’s upcoming 14th studio album The Sleeping Gods – Thorn, which will launch on November 11 on By Norse Music.
The follow-up to 2015’s In Times is available for pre-order via their label’s website and comes just a week after their 1994 debut album Vikingligr Veldi is reissued. It’s set for release on November 3.
Guitarist Ivar Bjornson said of revisiting the record: “We have been waiting since the day we recorded it – and at last it is happening.
“It has been a challenging journey, and it has demanded a lot of patience and understanding from all parts involved.
“The day we hold the finished product in our hand will be as sacred a day for us as the day we finished recording it.”
Enslaved won the Best Underground award at this year’s Metal Hammer Golden Gods.
They are currently out on tour across Europe.
