The band comments on the single:
“Ghost Story” is one of the more challenging compositions on the album, where the band abandons the usual diatonic scales to create a horror movie atmosphere before diving into thrash metal and Eastern European melodies. The song continues the critique of European refugee policy introduced in ‘Braving The Storm’, but with a supernatural twist, as shown in the music video.”
Forge Of Rebellion tracklist:
01 Secrets Of The Forge
02 Burn The Boats
03 Braving The Storm
04 Ghost Story
05 The Dragon Of Ice
06 Humankinds Fall
Founded in 2010 by Igor Jakobsen and Daniel Paulsen Figenschou, Dreamslain’s line-up was completed in 2013 with the addition of Anna Loppacher. The trio’s debut EP, Tales of War, was initially unleashed in 2016, and subsequently remixed and re-released two years later. Whether based in fantasy or reality, Dreamslain convey their core message of fighting for justice and the rights for all to have fulfilling lives with powerful music. Dreamslain’s first full-length album, Tales of Knights and Distant Worlds, released as a double album on CD, was unveiled in January of 2021 and saw the metallers expand their reach to new lands. Now, in 2024, the band continue to push their musicality and creativity with the forthcoming album Forge Of Rebellion.
Dreamslain ventured into the live scene early in their career and have performed in Switzerland, in Sweden and their home of Norway. They have delivered performances with Circus Maximus in Tromsø in 2018, Bergen with Vulture Industries in 2021, and Madder Mortem in 2022 also in Tromsø. The end of 2023 saw the band perform alongside Darkest Era and Jaime at the Tromsø Metal & Prog, with early 2024 seeing the trio venture to Portugal to share the stage with Deathawaits, Black Widows and Rageful.
