This is a demo from the band called Vaakevandring. Vaakevandring means in Norwegian "To Walk And Wake Up People" (nice). these guys are a side project of a few of the members of Antestor. this is one of my FAVORITE cds every I have bought. wow these guys are some of the best symphonic black metal bands i have ever heard of.

It only has 4 songs but there pretty good lengthed. the first song is called "Fader Vaar" which means "Lords Prayer" in Norwegian. this song is a good mix of Goth/and symphonic Black metal. the English translations of this song is pretty cool. at times it even seems like there is a Celtic flute playing in the background which really sounds good. the second song is just WOOOW!!!!!!!!!!! this song like so good. like the vocals and the songs are ok but this is some of the best keyboards i have ever heard in my life. in the song there is a Orchestra sounding type keyboard solo this is without doubt extremely beautiful. this song is one of my favorites. the third song is really good symphonic black metal. the song is titled "Og Sorgen Stilnet a Smerters Van" which means "And The Sorrow Drowned in The Rivers of Despair"!!!!!!!! I don't know the English translation of the song but the song is really good. his vocals sound deeper and more growlish in this song. finally the last song is really cool too making this an almost perfect album. catchy keyboards and awesome lyrics. this song is only on the reissue i think. this demo was wonderful. truly a masterpiece.
Sadly these guys I believe have broken up and we wont be able to see them live any time soon. if you like symphonic black metal I REALLY ENCOURAGE THIS CD!  only a few left like in
Blastbeats.
