Today, May 15th, 2026, marks 30 years since Sacramentum’s album Far Away From The Sun was released, and 31 years since it was recorded. I still remember when we wrote and rehearsed the songs mainly during 1994, although Anders and Nisse already had a few songs written earlier, and later entered Unisound Studio in Örebro with Dan Swanö to record the album in 1995. Many great memories from that era. What many people may not know is that some of the riffs I contributed actually originated from early Runemagick material. I had written quite a lot of music for Runemagick in the years before, but during that period the project was somewhat dormant, so we took a few riffs and reshaped them to fit songs such as “Blood Shall Be Spilled” and “Beyond All Horizons”. Many seem to consider it Sacramentum’s finest album, and it certainly has its own charm, with rather unusual arrangements, atmospheric and somewhat unique sounds and riffs. Just a short reflection on times long gone. Wishing everyone a great weekend! @sacramentumofficial #sacramentum

Nicklas and Andy La Rocque are currently at Sonic Train Studios, working on mixing and mastering the new Runemagick album. This marks a new epic chapter in Era VI and continues the path set by “Cycle of the Dying Sun (Dawn of Ashen Realms)”. While awaiting the release of this journey through Death, Doom, and Pagan Metal later this autumn, take the time to listen to and, if you have not already, support the latest album "Cycle of the Dying Sun (Dawn of Ashen Realms)", it will give you a deeper connection to what lies ahead in Era VI. More updates on the album will follow. Nicklas also recommends keeping an eye on Andy La Rocque’s upcoming album with Lex Legion, a powerful and compelling metal release.
