SSOGE news…

It is the announcement of European tour of the Moravian folk metal band Silent Stream Of Godless Elegy (Cz), which has been settled in cooperation with bands Abinchova (Ch), Percival Schuttenbach (Pl), Virrasztók (Hu), Illuminandi (Pl), and Hammer Music (Hungarian music agency), as exchange gigs of the international folk metal scene. They take place in Czech Republic (as traditional festival called “Samhainfest” with tradition of exchange gigs of folk/pagan metal bands since 2010), Poland, Hungary and Switzerland. Three stops will also be tour gigs of Arkona (Ru) + Dalriada (Hu)+ Darkest Era (Ir).

Silent Stream Of Godless Elegy has been founded in 1995 as doom metal band with Slavonic Folkish influence. In 2000, Line-up and style of the band has changed distinctly; the band started to co-work with TomᚠKočko, the famous Moravian Folk singer and composer, who has began to produce music of SSOGE. Now, their music reflects Moravian spirit – legends, traditions, history, gods, and is a blend of doom metal with beautiful Moravian folklore. Lyrics are mainly in Czech language. In 2004, the band came with the first album of their new Era – Relic Dances. This album used to win two Czech prestige hard music awards (Anděl, Břitva). In January 2011, they have released their second album – Návaz – by the famous French label Season of Mist.
