Anglagard's Mattias Olsson on Facebook:  

May 29th:

Quote Tomorrow is the first day of the rehearsals for the new Änglagård album. Dates booked for recording in August. Its gonna be interesting and with a bit of luck....loud & weird.

June 1st:

Quote Rehearsals for the new Änglagård album are going really well...figuring out polyrhythms between hands, feet and ears. 15 minute long songs, swirly Mellotrons and Taurus pedals. It feels like we just went out for coffee for eight years and just walked back into the rehearsal room.

June 3rd:

Quote Last day of the Änglagård rehearsals. We have managed to get two songs into recordable shape which feels great. That means that by mid august half of the drum tracks will be done...

Yeah, the build-up towards the new album is very slow, but they were buried weren't they? So I can live with that. Tongue

That's really good news! I hugely enjoyed "Hybris" and "Epilog" was great as well. Awesome!

Not only are Anglagard alive and recording a new album, they will be playing live again, according to their facebook.

Quote Ok...so after a couple of months of discussing and a whole lot of talking we have decided that paralell with the recording of a new album Änglagård will be doing some live shows again in 2011 and 2012. There are already discussions about some very interesting gigs but nothing is settled yet but we will inform as soon we have all the details. Best regards, Mattias Olsson

It isn't nearly as good as Hybris.

I like both. Of course, "Hybris" is my favourite album too, but that was a magnificent pair of masterpieces! And maybe soon we'll get "three of a perfect pair"! Wink

People of Progverse, did you know that Anglagard is back? Well i did NOT know and finding that out put a big smile on my face since they were responsible for a couple of amazing albums and my regaining faith in the possibility of Prog Rock´s ressurgence in the early 90s. Read here: Anglagard.net - Änglagård: A Swedish prog rock band.

"Finally. The recording of Änglagårds third album starts today. The plan is to record drums on two songs, and possibly some grand piano and Timpani. Thomas and Jonas have been working hard this weekend getting all the monitor files in order and I have been trying to figure out how much crapola Ill be bringing to the studio. With a bit of luck it will all work out."

Saw that update today. So stoked, especially since I seem to be in the minority who much preferred Epilog

They've sent me an E-Mail via their newsletter mailing list, that will be buried sooner or later (they mention), sad to say.
Quote Anglagard have been busy recording a new album. There no release date yet (or label or name or cover), but Spring / Summer 2012 should be a good guess. A documentary about the making of the album is being made; the first part can be watched at http://vimeo.com/36273489.
Cannot wait for their newest stuff really. Cool

Awesome! Very curious to see what they sound like after absorbing 8 years worth of influences. Hybris is quite possibly my favourite 90's album from any genre, and it's up there for favourite overall. About halfway through "Kung Bore" I always drop anything I'm doing and rock out like a maniac. Tongue

Änglagård announced that their highly anticipated third studio album is scheduled for a release in June. During the band's first performance since their 2003 reunion here in Stockholm the members of the band unveiled that the new album is going to be titled "Viljans Öga" and will continue the tradition of the lengthy compositions that were featured on their previous releases.
