The new video is online since Sunday, 20th September and heralding the new album "The Last Viking" – a true masterpiece that gives you a rare historical view on the Vikings. The raging pagan-hymn “Chain Of The Golden Horn” chronicles Hardrada’s dangerous escape from Byzantium, where a heavy iron chain was hidden in the Bosporus waters to wreck hostile ships.

If you haven’t noticed yet, the first single “Dark Love Empress” has been released in the middle of August - the haunting rock opus tells about the vengeful empress Zoë. When the Viking hero refuses to be one of her many lovers she has him locked in the Byzantine dungeons. The attentive reader recognizes, it’s not happening by accident, that those two clips have been released in that particular order. They successively narrate the whole story.
The thrilling first single showcases what a key strength the Finnish soprano-sensation Elina Siirala has become to the band sound.
