HELHEIM’s V’gandr and VULTURE INDUSTRIES’ Bjornar E. Nilsen come face to face with each other in a new video to talk about their upcoming “Strange Rain” tour. In the video, the two musicians discuss each other’s bands, as well as what fans can expect from the tour, which includes MADDER MORTEM and CAELESTIA.
All four bands are very different, spanning the range and diversity of the Norwegian metal scene, and all are known for their dynamic live performances. Which makes “Strange Rain” a tour that will appeal to a wide variety of fans, who are sure to discover new favourites along the way.

Nilsen mixing and producing the album alongside the band , and Herbrand Larsen (ENSLAVED) handling the mastering.
