Elevenking - Reader Of The Runes - Luna

Double vinyl LP pressing. The runes are cast - our fate is sealed: With a triumphant strike, Elvenking end their "Reader of the Runes" trilogy on a high note, mastering the thin red line between hope and darkness. Who is this enigmatic Reader of the Runes? Who will withstand the fall of idols? Enter this final instalment of one of the most epic sagas in the history of heavy metal and let it take you somewhere far beyond, hearkening back to the long lost age of immersive album culture. Unlike so many lacklustre endings to trilogies in popular culture, Elvenking know how to live up to the promises made by the first two instalments: After "Divination" (2019) and "Rapture" (2023), the Italian fantasy metal wizards are hitting home hard with "Reader of the Runes - Luna", showing once and for all how to end things with style, grandeur and monumental bravado. The best comes last, as they say, and while Elvenking already excited and enthralled the world of heavy metal with part one and two, they are well aware that they haven't even come close to shooting all their bolts and revealing all the tricks up their sleeves.
