Enslaved commented: “Below The Lights is a special album to us, a stint between two eras in our career. It was the last to feature Dirge Rep on drums, the first since Roy Kronheim left the band, the first album with guitar leads by Ice Dale and the most focused album in many, many years! We were very proud of the final result… and nobody seemed to care, hahaha!
At least not at the time of its release. But, in the following years, we recognised an ever-increasing horde of people suddenly embracing it. Fans started shouting: “Play Havenless!” or “As Fire Swept Clean The Earth!” at gigs.
We were a bit puzzled by this sudden praise for the album but decided to include some of the songs in our setlists. Now, almost two decades later, we are proud to finally perform the album in its entirety through the ether at Beyond The Gates Festival 2020 – a festival that we feel a close connection to; and that we have worked together with fruitfully many times in the past. Beyond The Gates always goes its own way, pushing the boundaries and sharing their unique ethos alongside a dedication to their favourite music like we also do in Enslaved.”
