After a long and torturous break since their formation in 2013, Eld Varg is back in action, and they mean business! Led by the fearless Ollie Noakes, this one-man army officially launched in 2021 with their debut album, aptly titled ‘One Man Army’. Drawing inspiration from heavy metal legends like Grand Magus, Amon Amarth, Ningen Isu, and The Sword, Eld Varg brings the thunder with their raw and powerful sound.
What’s even more impressive is that Ollie Noakes took charge of everything, from writing and performing to producing and mixing, leaving no stone unturned at his epic ‘Fort Noakes Studios’ in Scotland. Talk about a true musical warrior!
Lyrically, Eld Varg is a force to be reckoned with. Their combative, triumphant, and introspective themes often transport you to mythical realms, where they rub shoulders with the gods themselves, spinning original and victorious tales that will leave you craving more.
But that’s not all! In 2022, Eld Varg released an acoustic version of the epic anthem ‘Wastelands’ from their debut album, all for a noble cause—to raise funds for Ukraine. To make it even sweeter, they dropped a professionally recorded music video alongside it, showcasing their artistic prowess.
Hold on tight, because the thunder is about to strike again! On May 19th, 2023, Eld Varg unleashed the beast once more with the ‘Reinforced Edition’ of ‘One Man Army’. This epic release features each song meticulously reimagined and rerecorded, showcasing the jaw-dropping growth in musicianship, production, professionalism, and overall presentation of Ollie and his formidable band. This is the definitive and flawless version of ‘One Man Army’, and now the focus shifts to their highly anticipated second album, which is already written and ready to rock your world. The recording process begins in the second half of 2023, so prepare yourselves for an unstoppable onslaught of metal madness!
While Eld Varg remains Ollie Noakes’ solo project, he has assembled a powerhouse live band to bring the thunder to the stage. Brace yourselves, because this power trio is gearing up for their explosive live debut in July 2023, and you won’t want to miss it!
