Support from Svalbard and Wayfarer. I'd be very tempted by this, bit surprised at the venue choice though. I'd have thought they'd fill a bigger venue.
Definitely surprised at the venue. Plenty of other acts of the same relative niche/popularity have done well in the Academy, right?
Class on a Sunday so a drive up down job. Wayfarer are mint too.
Nice, haven't seen them since the co-headliner with High on Fire a few years back.
My metal claim to fame is getting roasted by Grutle at that gig, stood in the middle near the front, had freshly clean shaved that day with short hair and he looks at me and goes 'This guy looks about 14, probably stole that beer from the Tesco next door'.
Shit venue,
Would love to have caught the Below the lights set they did last week at Damnation.Their gig in 2006 in The village still one of my all time favourite gigs.An unbelievable band in the 2000s,but they lost me after Ruun.
Same as that. Couldn't see myself going to see them now unless there wasa no new stuff guarantee.

Class gig, same venue 18 years on.
18 fuckin years. Jesus.
Brilliant live band,be good to see them live again.
I would be well up for this if it was one of the Frost or Eld in full shows no chance of that though. Modern day Enslaved is terrible last time I saw them a few years ago I was bored to tears and left half way through the set.

They are doing album sets at fests so still possible. I think they do a good set, generally mix it up with deep old cuts.
I quite like their new stuff, though not as much as their mid or early period material. I'd written off going to gigs after Swans but this might be worth a go. I'd be surprised if it wasn't changed to a bigger venue though.

They seem to be festival exclusives only. If it was going to be an early album only show I reckon the tour would be advertised like that as I think it would get a better turnout than just a set consisting of the progressive shit.
I must of seen Enslaved at least 5 times over the years maybe more. That 2006 gig mentioned earlier being the first time and they have never played anything from Eld or the 1st album. It was always 1 or if you are lucky 2 tracks from Frost. Looking at recent setlists they don't even seem to be doing the Frost songs anymore.
Pretty sure they played something off VV in The Tivoli. Maybe wrong though.

They definitely played Alfodr Odinn and 2 Frost tunes but can't remember any VV ones.
They then opened with 793 the next festival run though..
I wasn't at that Tivoli show last time I saw them that clown Abbath supported.

Same here. That gig was fuckin class but I wouldn't go across the road to hear anything after Ruun. Zyklon were fantastic too, so tight and neat
Looking forward to this seen a couple of tracks from some of their better albums being played live so far on the tour.
Was on the fence about this one but only 2 songs (The same two as always) from the bands good era means I won't bother going. And last nights set only one song pre 2000
Thought about it myself but I can't see myself enjoying it.
I enjoyed that , never seen Enslaved before they were great. Sound was atrocious for the support bands though, couldn't hear the guitars at all.
Enslaved were brilliant, almost 20 years since I last saw them but still a class live band. Below the lights, Isa and Hordanes land stuff sounded great live.
The father ted banter from Gruttle was funny too.
He introduced the band as Fathers such and such again?
He did.

what Hordanes land tunes? just Allfǫðr Oðinn? still raging i missed the old set they played a few years ago of just the first 3 albums.
Yeah just Odin, otherwise nothing from the albums up to Below the Lights
I was over at Damnation a few months ago when they played the full Vikinglir Veldi so I was happy to have more of the newer stuff this time
Great gig, place seemed packed even though there was still tickets on the door

They have never toured an old school set all they do is the odd festival appearance where they play one of the first 3 albums in full and they have never and probably will never do this for an Irish show. I saw a video a while back of them playing Hellfest in 2016 where Grutle said at the beginning it was an old school set but they were playing songs from Isa and Vertebrae in that. For me an old school set is the bands good material only which is everything they did in the 90's.
They should have done a Frost in full set for this tour with it being the 30th anniversary yet it seems they aren't even playing any songs from Frost.

ah it was a show at the dome in london for tracks off the first 3 albums years ago with a second show the next night for later stuff. yeah that frost tour would have been serious had they done that. shame.
Had a look at some of their setlists and they seem to swapping the middle song around, Yggdrasil one night, Frost another, Ruun after that
Anyone catch Wayfarer?
Was considering going but there's a lot on the next 2 months and I've seen Enslaved a few times before.
Saw about 15 mins of Wayfarer - crap sound didn't get much out of it, listening to them on record they are great.

A first 3 albums show would be a dream and well worth travelling to London for.

If it was the first song I'd nearly go home after it
