According to Season Of Mist, SOLEFALD is close to completing their new album Red For Fire, Black For Death. Garm of ULVER fame will be making a guest appearance on the album, playing the part of Loki. Solefald masterminds Cornelius and Lars have issued the following statement with regards to the new material:

"Solefald was experimenting when everybody was being true. Now that things are changing and that we've pushed the experiment quite far already, we wanted Red For Fire, Black For Death to be our attempts at being true. This will be a True Nordik, Viking Metal album. Garm's the closest incarnation of Loki I know, there's this tricker, malice thing to him really - he fits the role perfectly! A few selected journalist were invited to a listening session during Inferno this year - they were in for a shock, and the reactions were more than positive."

Red For Fire, Black For Death is scheduled for release on Season Of Mist this fall.
