Former VREID Guitarist's SLEGEST Reveal Live Lineup; Music Video In The Works
 With a new album about to be released, SLEGEST founder and frontman Ese has put together a live lineup to take what was initially a solo project onto the stage.
“As soon as the album was announced I was being asked if the band would ever play live”, says the former VREID guitarist, “and, as it happens, the time felt right to take the next step in Slegest's development. Once I had everyone on board, the thought of playing live again felt really good. It’s one of the greatest satisfactions there is when you play music, and honestly we can’t wait to get up there on stage”.
Aside from Ese on vocals and rhythm guitars, Slegest's live line up includes Sør (BÄÄÄV, VONBRÅTEN) on lead guitars, Hövard (BOMBEKLÜCHTER) on bass, and Fjøsne on drums.
Slegest are also working on a music video for 'Ho Som Haustar Aleine', the opening track on the band’s upcoming album Løyndom. The video is being produced by Håvard Nesbø and Ørjan Talle, and, according to Ese, the budget is one case of Hansa beer and on litre of Mackmyra Brukswhisky! The video will premiere in September.
Slegest recently inked a deal with Dark Essence Records for the release of the band’s debut full length album.
Set for release later this year, the eight-track album will be titled Løyndom (Secret) and was recorded partly in Ese’s own Systrond Studio and partly at the Conclave and Earshot Studio with producer Bjørnar E. Nilsen. The album is mastered by ENSLAVED’s Herbrand Larsen.
Løyndom tracklisting:
'Ho Som Haustar Aleine'
'Rooted In Knowledge'
'I Slike Stunder'
'Løgna Sin Fiende'
'The Path Of No Return'
'Faceless Queen'
'Dirt Life Death'
'Past Burden Strength'
Slegest was born in 2010, following Ese’s departure from Vreid, where he played guitar on four of the iconic band’s albums. Drawing his inspiration from BLACK SABBATH, Ese’s use of harsh vocals to create a special blend of classic heavy rock and old-school black metal was used to great effect on the band’s first release, the self-titled Slegest EP which appeared in 2012. One year later Ese has developed Slegest’s sound further, honing it to achieve a result that is both dark and sinister, whilst at the same time losing none of the dirtiness that can be heard in the unmistakable catchy groove that weaves its way through the music.
Whilst Slegest started life as solo project, with Ese handling vocals and playing all the instruments on Løyndom, apart from a guest solo by former Vreid band-mate Sture, it became apparent very quickly to everyone who heard the album that the potential for taking Slegest further and turning it into a live band was unmistakable and to ignore it would be insanity. As a result a live lineup has been put together and will be seen at festivals in the near future.
