Band:

Ljå

BiografieLjå, hailing from Stavanger, Norway, plays fierce and melodic norwegian Black Metal combined with accoustic guitars and melodic riffs.

The music has been compared to early Ulver, Marduk, Gorgoroth and the like. The music is an end result of different individual tastes in extreme metal, with the weight mostly on Black Metal.



Lineup:


Ciekals - Guitars

Rebnord - Guitars

Neievrut - Vocals

Askeland - Drums

Hallwar - Bass



Some History:

Before forming Ljå we all played in various acts since the early 90´s.

Ciekals was involved in bands like Neetzach and Malice. Neetzach, which also featured Sanrabb from Gehenna, recorded the demo "Pinselstronen" in ´93, but shortly after split up due to various reasons. Neievrut, Askeland and Rebnord played for several years in Knøfflihei, recorded some demos and generally had a good time. Hallwar was one of the founding members of Black Lodge, whom released the CD "Covet" on now-defunct HNF records.



In June 2002 Ciekals joined the Knøfflihei´ers, and together they united against the sun and formed Ljå. The demo EP "Vedderbaug" was recorded Friday 13-15. December 2002 and instantly received hailing critics from around the underground scene and labels. Spring 2003 Hallwar completed Ljå with his striking deathpulse.



A full-length album is coming out in October/November of 2005.
