We are always a bit skeptical about the “show-off”-trend of the music business nowadays and we would like to tread this path very carefully. For sure there is one thing that has to be said and it is “THANK YOU, ELVENLEGIONS”. Thanks to all the ones that listened to us on the digital platforms this year and to all the ones that bought a physical copy of our albums. This year saw a bit of turmoil for our band since we had a last-minute change of label in mid-late 2024 but that in the end made us happily release our last album “Reader of the Runes - Luna” in 2025. An album that ended the trilogy we started in 2017 and that marks a watershed moment for Elvenking. As an extension of this, the Children of Bodom cover anticipated the next release which will be a special one. Then we’ll be free to come up with a new album full of new energies and inspirations. Stay with us also in 2026 and we’ll discover all of this together. STAY METAL. STAY PAGAN. #wrapped #spotifywrapped #elvenking
As it seems the majority of you is interested in checking the setlist of the FIRST EVER gig played by Elvenking, here it is:
1. To oak woods bestowed
2. White Willow
3. Banquet of Bards
4. Dr Stein (HELLOWEEN cover)
5. Oakenshield
6. Infinite Dreams (IRON MAIDEN cover)
7. Under the Tree of Us’dum
It took place at DEMOS CLUB in Camisano Vicentino, Italy – We cannot find the correct date but it should be in the very first months of 2000.
Line up:
Damnagoras: Vocals & bass
Aydan: Guitars
Jarpen (Dag’or’dil at the time): Guitars
Zender (Stormgald at the time): Drums
Together with it an incredible pic of that night (blurry yes, but at the time there still were things called cameras) that marked the one and only live show with Damnagoras in the double role on vocals & Bass.
Aydan remembers: “As some of you already know, when we started the band in 1997 we deliberately took the decision to not play live until we were secured a number of decent own songs at hands. We locked ourselves in our rehearsal room from August 1998 -when Zender joined the band and completed the line up - until December 1999 - when we entered New sin Studios to record our one and only demo “To oak woods bestowed” - in order to focus 100% on songwriting the best material possible at the time. We never played live before the recordings of TOWB. There are still amazing songs out of that long songwriting session unreleased and unrecorded and would be great to bring them to life one day”
Damna on his days as bass player: “At that time I started playing bass in the band because we were missing a bass player and, since I am also a guitarist, it was the easiest choice. I recorded the demo and did this single show à la Blind Guardian (in times when Hansi was still singing and playing bass), and it was just great. Still, it was very demanding, since Elvenking’s vocal parts are not exactly the easiest thing in the world, so we then naturally transitioned to the first‑album lineup.”
