Welcome to the offical Waylander site.

18th May
Arkwork released!! Click here to view.

6th May
Album DONE and sent off!!! Sounding brutal.

12th Feb
Just added a new "Review" section under the "Releases" tab. Seems as though "Honour Amongst Chaos" collected scores from 80-95% on average. How about that then.
I've also added a tour diary written by Ciaran, giving a day by day account of the Black Trolls over Europe tour. This can be found under Diary tab.

9th Feb
We have been busy of late. So busy infact that I forgot to update the site with everything that is going on.
Firstly Tor Dennison has joined the band full time since our last tour and things are sounding heavier than ever.
We are also in the last few weeks of production for the new album, so a lot of work to be done on the booklet and some new photos.
We are also happy to announce that we will be playing the main stage of Hammerfest IV this year, so get yourselves off to Wales.

5th Sep
Drums and Guitars done on the album.
European Tour announced!!

8th Aug
We will start recording this Thursday!
Drums have been set up, mic'd and tuned from today, bring on the double kicks!
As of Thursday we shall add a new vid to the site every few days, showing the recording process. Expect a more interesting video journal than most bands do, with info that you actually want to hear and see. Like drum and guitar set ups, recording techniques, how to videos and an in depth look at folk instruments in metal. Keep checking in!

Go to our new Studio Diary tab at the top to watch all video and diary entries added daily.

  • Just thought I'd let you guys know I reckon you're probably the best sounding folk band around, and one of the best metal bands full stop. 100 thumbs ups for you blokes

  • Thank you all for the kind words and for patiently awaiting the the new album. There have been delays but we are about to begin mixing so we are getting ever closer.

    I won't guess on a release date, it's best to wait until Listenable Records give us the official release date.

    We are planning on tour dates from September onwards at the minute so if any of you want to see us in your town ask your local promoter to get in touch with us through this site.
