"The Hällas Saga" CD by Hällas

On their self-titled debut EP in 2015, Hällas laid the foundation for the saga, which shares the same name as the protagonist Crusader and the band itself, and later evolved into a trilogy consisting of the last two songs on the EP and the two following Albums, 'Excerpts from a Future Past' and 'Conundrum'.

To celebrate the conclusion of the trilogy, the band decided to perform a one-time show in front of a seated audience at Cirkus, a classic venue in Stockholm. Due to worldwide restrictions, the show had to be rescheduled and postponed multiple times until finally taking place on April 10, 2022. After over two years of hiatus, with the exception of a smaller festival appearance the previous year, this was the band's first performance during that period, and it was the longest set in their entire career. All three of the band's initial releases were performed in reverse order in two acts.

Act I consisted of 'Hällas' and 'Excerpts from a Future Past', while Act II featured 'Conundrum' and two songs from the newly released Album, 'Isle of Wisdom'. It was the first time people could experience these new songs live. Some of the older songs, such as 'Insomnia' and 'Tale of a Tyrant', had not been performed in several years. 'Strider' and 'Blinded by the Emerald Mist' had never been played live before. Hällas fans from around the world who attended the show could look forward to an unforgettable evening. With this record, you get a piece of that cake in your own living room. So, take a seat and enjoy this time capsule, as it is a very good representation of how the band sounded live back then.
