"Fornost Arnor have two things going for them, namely originality and style. They are certainly more than capable to hold their own against Opeth and like-minded bands. I'm very impressed!"

    Description We're happy to announce an evening of fantastic progressive bands joining Labouring Breath Promotions in March 2012. Fornost Arnor are enjoying a wave of acclaim and gigging hard after the release of their excellent album 'The Death of a Rose' via WitchKing Records. They played a well received and high quality gig with our main support act Rannoch in Nottingham in November. Rannoch enjoyed success in 2011 that they'll be hoping to build on in 2012, having won the midlands M2TM competition to win themselves a deserved spot at the Bloodstock Open Air Festival. EnTro-P join us again after seriously impressing us and everyone in the crowd in the gig they played for us in early November 2011. Playing track after quality track from their album 'Deeper The Hole', we're delighted to have them on another line-up. Finally we've added Birmingham own The Hundred Handed. Still fairly new to the scene, but I caught them at The Flapper in December and was seriously impressed. More individual info and poster to follow soon.
