Swiss folk metal superstars ELUVEITIE have partnered with GearGods.net today to reveal a playthrough video for their song “Deathwalker” from their newly released, critically acclaimed record, Ategnatos. The new video features a performance of the track on the hurdy gurdy by Michalina Malisz. Watch it now at https://bit.ly/2LehPfC.
Commenting on the song and performing in the band, Malisz says, “I’ve played the hurdy gurdy for 5 years and using it in metal music is what I’m all about. Being able to do it as my job falls probably to the same category as winning a lottery, so I’m very thankful for it and excited about it! Here is a playthrough of “Deathwalker”, one of my favorite songs from “Ategnatos” with an epic hurdy line. It was a lot of fun to record it, I hope you’ll enjoy it as well! 🙂”

Recordings of Ategnatos took place in their beloved New Sound Studio with their engineer of choice Tommy Vetterli. “Yet it was radically different as we only had four weeks to record this time around – as compared to the eight weeks we had for Origins.” By taking mixing duties to the skilled hand of renowned studio wizard Jens Bogren in his Fascination Street Studios in Örebro, Sweden, ELUVEITIE returned to the very spot where they mixed their now legendary Slania album more than ten years ago.
With Ategnatos, the dedicated nine-piece not only worked with a real string quartet (a premiere!) and granted Fabienne Erni’s sublime mastery of the harp the room it deserved; they also undertook a holistic upgrade resulting in some of the most catchy, most aggressive or most epic tunes the Swiss Metal nobility has ever offered.

Nicole Ansperger | fiddle
Alain Ackermann | drums
Chrigel Glanzmann | vocals, whistles, mandola, bagpipes
