The Batallion was founded in Bergen , Norway in the summer of 2006. All members are well established metalhead musicians who have played in some of the most legendary bands from Norway, such as Old Funeral,Grimfist,Taake,Borknagar, ST. Satan, Deathcon, and Bombers.
The reason for starting The Batallion was the pure hunger for the spirit of the old metal feel. They possess the guts,the rebellion and the authenticity it takes to perform this music.
In December of 2006 they had 4 tracks completed and entered Conclave Studio in Bergen to record their debut EP. After concidering offers from a few labels,they decided to release it under their own label Masculin Records. It is pressed in 500 copies on CD and 500 copies on 7" vinyl format. This has already been concidered an instant classic in the Bergen metal scene. It also resulted in beeing booked at the Hole In The Sky Festival and Festung Open Air.
The Batallion entered Conclave studio again in November 2007 and proceeded to record their first full lenght album.The quality of the material lead to a record contract with the Bergen based label Dark Essence Records (www.darkessencerecords.no).
The debut album has a release date set for the 17th of March 2008 in Norway,and the 21st of April 2008 in the rest of the world. The album is entitled "Stronghold Of Men" and contains 11 tracks of no compromise shredding toughness! It will be available on CD , LP and picture disc LP. It will be distributed trough Tuba and Plastic Head.
The Batallion means buisness. Once you've experienced them, there is no return. This is the real deal.
BEWARE THE ATTACK!!!
The Debut EP from The Batallion can still be ordered directly from the band. It's available on vinyl and CD (very few copies left) and is released on the Norwegian label Masculin Records. You can also order the album 'Stronghold Of Men' directly. Support the attack!!
