ENSLAVED Guitarist Hints At New Album, Will Curate Fire In The Mountains Festival

Possibly titled On Wings Over Utgard.

ENSLAVED

Fire In The Mountains has not only announced Enslaved as the headliner for their 2020 iteration, but has also named Enslaved guitarist Ivar Bjørnson as the event's first-ever curator.

Bjørnson said he's extremely excited to curate and play the festival, and in his statement also alluded to a new Enslaved album coming in 2020 possibly titled On Wings Over Utgard.

"It is a massive honor to be asked to be the first guest curator for the Fire in the Mountains festival. I have decided to name my curator showcase "On Wings Over Utgard"; inspired by the thematics from the coming Enslaved-album. Modern man is a being that has forgotten how chaos, darkness and decay are as important and beautiful parts of existence as all the bliss, youth and light we over-feed ourselves in the (dis-)Information Age. What better scenic metaphor to realize this part of the overall vision than at Fire in the Mountains; surrounded by wild, chaotic nature. Where life is how it was meant to be; uncontrolled, balanced and unified. I cannot wait to start showing you all the artists I am inviting to sonically and lyrically illustrate all this!"

Fire In The Mountains will be held on July 11 and 12 at the Heart Six Ranch in Moran, WY.
