Iotunn<\/a><\/strong> will release their new record Kinship<\/em> on October 25 and is now streaming the massive new single “I Feel The Night”.<\/p>\n “The creation of Kinship<\/em> has been the most extensive and wild journey we’ve ever been part of,” said Iotunn<\/a><\/strong> guitarist Jesper Gr\u00e4s<\/strong>. “Like trekking up the Galdh\u00f8piggen mountain in Norway, we have crossed peak after peak and seen things continuously brighter and wider until we reached the top, the end. Never have we been prouder and more pleased, and we hope our fans \u2013 old and new \u2013 will take this album into their hearts and let it unfold from there.”<\/p>\n On the single itself, Gr\u00e4s<\/strong> added: “‘I Feel The Night’ is the result of many years searching for a certain kind of song. Big lyrical and musical storylines of songs such as ‘Stairway To Heaven,’ ‘Child In Time,’ and ‘Fade To Black’ \u2013 to mention a few \u2013 have been at the core of inspiration for Iotunn<\/a><\/strong> and we searched to make our song full of dynamics, feelings, and huge storytelling. This is ‘I Feel The Night.’ Lots of atmosphere and lots of heaviness.”<\/p>\n Fellow guitarist Jens Nicolai<\/strong> Gr\u00e4s<\/strong> added: “When Jesper<\/strong> came up with the two core ideas that the entire first half of the song builds on, it was clear that we should make a song with a mellow verse and heavy chorus. I really enjoy the tone in this song. Then, for the last part of the song, it just kept expanding in the creative process but with the final part everything seemed to reach its natural final breath.”<\/p>\n
