You can also check out the entirety of the Writer’s Bloc series here<\/a>.<\/p>\n “Right now I would say ‘Causa Latronum Normannorum’, but it could change at any point.”<\/p>\n “For a few reasons. ‘Causa Latronum Normannorum’ is based on a very short and simple melodic and harmonic idea, but I think we formed it into an epic and high-flying tune. It’s the first time we use Latin in our lyrics, and the Faroese parts I’m particularly satisfied with, which is unusual.”<\/p>\n “‘Causa Latronum Normannorum’ is not a song that catches the general public on the first listen, and it’s probably too long to be played in full on regular radio. But more specifically, we asked a high number of our friends to vote for the top 3 songs on the album, and we chose the singles based on that vote. ‘Causa Latronum Normannorum’ was not in the top 3.”<\/p>\n \nWhat is your favorite song off your new record?<\/h2>\n
