Item Description

SHIPS BY 08/21/2026

Artist: Taake
Title: En Skog av Nidstang
Genre: Metal
Label: Dark Essence Records
Having balanced tradition and innovation for over three decades, Taake remains fiercely independent while
continually pushing its own creative boundaries. That uncompromising vision finds new expression on the ninth full-
length album, En Skog av Nidstang.
Past years of increasing isolation for songwriter Hoest. Detached from contemporary trends and largely removed
from the influence of other music, his creative drive has only intensified, resulting in four expansive compositions
that flow naturally from the inspired mindset behind 2023's critically acclaimed Et Hav av Avstand.
The recordings for En Skog av Nidstang were completed south of Bergen, in the moss-covered forests around the
island of Borgøy. In the surroundings depicted by the ill-fated Norwegian painter Lars Hertervig, Taake embraced
the focused seclusion of the landscape, relying less on modern technology or studio excess, but on intuition,
confinement, creativity, and a mastery of the rudimentary tools of the trade.
And it sounds unmistakably like Taake. Reckless thrashing riffs mix with brooding gloom, chilling melodies emerge
from violent intensity, and moments of desolate reflection give way to untamed aggression. The result is an album
that celebrates the enduring power of an unyielding artistic vision; proof that, after 33 years, Taake remains as
vital, distinctive, and relevant as ever.
