The track comes off the band's debut album,"Storm Seeker", which will be released on August 22 in Europe and August 23 in North America viaCentury Media Records.
CommentedICS Vortex: "This song was written way back when I still felt black metal was dangerous. Now, totally untrue to all that, it's a tribute to the only beast I ever loved."
"Storm Seeker"will be released in Europe as initial limited-edition digipak, 180-gram LP and as a digital download. According to a press release, the CD "takes the musical elements from [ICS Vortex's] 10-plus years of experience withDIMMU BORGIRas well as the legacy of the classic bands with whom he is still active (BORKNAGAR,ARCTURUSandLAMENTED SOULS), topping things off with his signature clean vocals in order to make'Storm Seeker'become a perfectly balanced axe, whether a song is cutting fast, or dicing slow."
"Storm Seeker"features appearances byICS Vortex'sBORKNAGARbandmateAsgeir Mickelsonon drums andTerje "Cyrus" Andersen(SUSPERIA,DIMMU BORGIR) on lead guitar. The CD was recorded atToproom Studio(MAYHEM,TRISTANIA,BORKNAGAR) with engineerBørge Finstadand mastered byPeter in de BetouatTailor Maid Studio(ARCH ENEMY,DARK TANQUILLITY,DIMMU BORGIR) in Sweden.
