Russian folk metallers Pagan Reign are back from the dead with the release of the new studio album, entitled Once Again. This the band's first new music after more than 12 years, since their latest opus Tverd (Ancient Fortress). It was released just recently, on December 22nd, and was produced by Pagan Reign members (Pavel Makarov) & Vetrodar (Dmitriy Kuznetsov). That's not all. The entire Once Again effort is now available for streaming down under. Check it out.

The band commented: "After 12 years of silence, Pagan Reign will be born 'Once Again' on Winter Solstice 2018. Once Again is the title of the 5th studio album which contains 12 lively, solid and technical compositions written in their unique style full of magic ancient melodies and visions of infinity.

"The main idea behind the album is revival of the band and the endless will to perfection. The album is musically smooth and does not sound unexpectedly but at the same time it's a step forward and not aside from the main creative path of their previous works. Powerful clear chords, shrilly screams, deep growls and virtuoso melodies are carring the listener into infinity while making the time stand still. Once Again is a monumental masterpiece opening the gates of the Universe, merging the past, the present and the future."
