‘True Norwegian Black Metal’ force, Taake was formed in 1993 and since the world hasn’t ended, their 20th birthday will go ahead as planned. A “20 song, 2 CD collection of Taake rarities” will be released worldwide on 4th March 2013 through Dark Essence Records in celebration of the occasion and will coincide with a European tour.
The CD, called ‘Gravkamre, Kroner og Troner’ (‘Burial Chambers, Crowns and Thrones’), will contain “exclusive new tracks, [and] also rare and previously unreleased material, as well as alternative versions and recordings that have, until now, only been available on vinyl.”
The album will feature several guests including Shining’s Niklas Kvarforth (on the already released song, ‘Nordbundet’, from 2011’s ‘Noreg’s Vaapen’.)
You can listen to the opening track, ‘Et Pust av Oeyne’, on Taake’s SoundCloud
now.
