The new Gwydion album ‘Veteran’ is out now. This release came after a period in which a lot of things changed for the band. About time for Folk-metal.nl to talk with these guys and ask them about all these changes.
‘Yes you are right, we’ve made a lot of changes since Horn Triskelion, from our Music to all “administrative” method that we were used to work previously.
First of all, we tried to get another contract with Trollzorn, our previous label for a deal on this new album, but unfortunately it was not possible for them, due to the crisis installed on the Music market, and also because Gwydion´s distance from the main, Fests and venues all over Europe. That brings a lot of expenses to the cost of the band, so…. after contacting other labels and getting some very bad deals back, we decided to go on our own.’
‘Fundraising well, I personally found at first it was real strange, but then I started to investigate other bands that use this new platforms, so we thought hell why not man, let’s try and do this, and after all this it makes us very proud to get support from our fans all over the world, it was completely unreal all the support and good feedback we’ve got in all this process.
I tell you man This Album Veteran is not only our work, its birth and creation is from all who supported us and helped us!
So you asked me if Fundraising is worth it, by Odin it is!’
