Hmm... I can't see it. :/ All I see is Introducing Mariangela, Heretique, Equilibrium, and Libre.

Can someone throw this on Youtube or share the video with some other medium? I'm running Firefox on Linux where Flash is both frustrating and borderline useless. The official site is hell for me to navigate, and it doesn't even show up in the Media section.

Same here. I've tried 3 times with no success. I would be really thankful if someone could upload it on youtube.

It's working now!

Congratulations on the twins, Østen! Cheesy

And the new songs sound FANTASIC! Especially that one at the end... I definitely think the new album is going to push Tristania past Flowing Tears for my favorite band ever.

I'M SO EXCITED NOW! That little teaser at the very end of the video is almost bringing me to tears. So, so awesome.

I love you all.

thanks for posting the video on youtube. now i understand why kjetil is being added to the band.
lol at their speaking voices, its really diff. when it comes to their voices on albums haha..

and looks like the new album will follow the same formula of illumination.
thank goodness, that album grew on me haha. i dont have qualms anymore about the "new" sound.

A really warm & charming video, thank you guys! Hearty congratulations to Østen, you're in for quite a ride... Wink

And, yup, the new material sounds brilliant! Much looking forward to reports from the concerts this weekend, really frustrating not being able to attend!

Kjetil, welcome aboard! Love your work in GC and ToT, very curious to see your Østen interpretations!

Thank you, Deadlands!

First of all, congratulations Østen, everybody says that kinds are an extra joy in life. I'm sure you will have a good time with your family.

Welcome kjetil, I never heard your voice before but I trust Tristania members and my forum mates, so i'm looking forward for seeing you live with the band. Have a good time with them.

The new material is really good! Seems a mix of Ashes and Illumination. The best of Tristania, imho. Tongue
I'm anxious for the videos and reports from yesterday's gig and today's gig. Have a great time onstage Tristania!

Congratulations Osten.

Now life gets REALLY interesting. Trust me, we have 3 teenaged boys so we have done our time but, they also love Tristania so we must have done something right. Enjoy your time with your kids because it goes so fast, and before you know it, it's over.

We are all looking forward to the new CD! Can't wait!

Sorry it isn't "officially" at youtube, but I'm away from home this weekend. I'll update the official youtube account with this new video as well.

Thank you, everybody.

Thank you for the overwhelming support.
It really means a lot to me. 
The two shows we did this weekend Kjetil and me sang half the set each and Shadowman and Sacrilege together.
It was good fun.
I am looking forward to seeing you all again.

PS: There will soon be more good news on the website.

Yours,

Østen

Yes, thats all is co exciting!

Oh, I've already fell in love with these new songs, especially with this one with very emotional and "not-from-the-earth" singing of Mariangela. That's more than I expected! You sounds there like a siren (maybe is it the name of this song?), very temptating one Wink
The scecond song in this video, something amout a monkey Cheesy reminds me..."Sacrilege". I don't know why exactly Smiley Is it "Patriots Game" ?

Maybe the band will be so polite soon and give us some samples as the last time with "Illumination"- I'm really waiting for that!
Aaa...ok, I should take it easy, but I want now and albums title, and cover of the album, and promo session... Grin Grin Grin

Yes, i'm sure that the second song (and final song) was Patriot Games, acording to Anders description about the new music ... and ... maybe the first song was Protection and that one of the "not-from the earth" singing of Mary ... it could be Images (atmospheric and acoustic guitars)

Kjetil is a good surprise and choice for Tristania. I loved his work in Green Carnation and Trail Of Tears and can't wait for the first concert (Gößnitz in August, I hope). I'll miss Østen, but he has very good reasons for staying at home Wink
The small bits of the new songs sound very promising.

I'm running Firefox on Linux where Flash is both frustrating and borderline useless. The official site is hell for me to navigate, and it doesn't even show up in the Media section.

It works good for me (still not perfect) with Flash 10.0.22.87 and Firefox 3.0.8 under Linux. What are you using?
