In Norwegian tales of old, of a time when trolls, fairies and elves
walked the earth long before the rise of man, the focus is on the
midnight sun (in Norwegian: Midnattsol). When the midnight sun rose
to bathe the world in its unnatural glow, these creatures of myth
and magic would rise with it, leaving their darkened caves and
returning to the light. And with them came the stories that would
become legend with each passing generation. These legends havent
been forgotten and they are now being revisited by a young
Norwegian-German band called MIDNATTSOL, who have brought these
tales back to life through their Nordic Folk Metal sound. Not all
their songs are about trolls, elves, and dwarves, yet some people
say their music possesses an intangible Nordic magic that lets you
escape reality, if only for a while.

Singer Carmen Elise Espenaes the younger sister of LEAVES EYES
vocalist Liv Kristine and guitarist Chris Hector founded
MIDNATTSOL in 2002, their common ground being their mutual
affection for Nordic mythology and composition. Other like-minded
individuals were found in short order former Penetralia-drummer
Chris Murzinsky, keyboardist Daniel Fischer, guitarist Daniel
Droste and bassist Birgit Öllbruner and the band recorded their
first self-titled demo featuring the songs Desolate and Dancing
In The Midnightsun at Mastersound Studios. Only a year after their
formation the buzz had started, attracting attention from several
record companies and resulting in the bands current deal with
Napalm Records.

Whether it was Carmens voice, her emotioanl lyrics, or the
melancholy guitars no one can say for certain, but Desolate ended
up as the new #1 on the Metal Charts at Downloadportals MP3.de and
has since received over 4,000 hits. Small wonder that MIDNATTSOL
attracted the attention of the music media, specifically Orkus,
Zillo, Metal Heart, and the Canadian metal magazine Brave Words &
Bloody Knuckles. In addition, Carmens guest appearance on the
LEAVES EYES track Into Your Light made the pages of a major
Norwegian newspaper, long before the release of the official
MIDNATTSOL debut. She was also invited to go on tour with the world
famous black metal band CRADLE OF FILTH as a background vocalist on
their 'Nymphetamine' world tour, but had to decline the offer in
order to focus on completing the MIDNATTSOL debut.

In the end it was worth the heartbreak. Where Twilight Dwellsö is
the astounding result of months of hard work, taking the listener
on a journey through the dark, mysterious and ultimately thought
provoking Scandinavian landscape. One might be reminded of the
magic of BATHORY on acoustic guitar-led tracks like Unpayable
Silence and Trefall, or perhaps classic ANATHEMA on
MIDNATTSOLs interpretation of Edvard Griegs Solveigs Sang (found
in the song Tapt Av Hp) and tracks like Lament und Infinite
Fairytale.

Whatever the case, Where Twilight Dwellsö will transport the
listener to another world, a world that can be further explored
shortly after ist release through a book entitled En dans i
midnattsol (A Dance In The Midnight Sun). Written by Doreen Krase
and available through www.edition42.net, the book is a Nordic
fairytale connected to the midnight sun and the themes explored in
MIDNATTSOLs lyrics. As such, one can look at Where Twilight
Dwellsö as a concept album even though both CD and book are
separate entities. Perhaps guitarist Chris Hector describes it best
as an öopen circle that can be closed if one likes.ö
