Tyr To Enter Studio
Faroe Islands metallers TÝR have issued the following update:
"TÝR will go into Jacob Hansen's [RAUNCHY, ROB ROCK, HATESPHERE, MERCENARY] studio in in December to record their fourth full-length album, due to be released by Napalm Records in April or May 2008. TÝR's preceding two albums, 'Ragnarok' and 'Eric the Red', [were] recorded at Jacob Hansen's studio. It is situated in Ribe on the Jutland peninsula in Denmark. Ribe is one of the oldest known large and organized viking settlements in Scandinavia, so it's only very fitting that TÝR record their albums there. The cooperation between TÝR and Jacob Hansen have been most appreciated by all parts involved so the decision for TÝR to continue recording at Jacob Hansen's studio was not a hard one."
TÝR's third album, "Ragnarok", was released in Europe in September 2006 via Napalm Records.
