Eld Varg Live!!!!
After an extended hiatus from the original 2013 formation of the band, Eld Varg officially launched in 2021 with the full-length release of ‘One Man Army’. This was the solo project of Ollie Noakes, drawing inspiration from heavy metal giants the likes of Grand Magus, Amon Amarth, Ningen Isu and The Sword. Everything from writing and performance through to production, mixing, and mastering was completed by Ollie Noakes at his ‘Fort Noakes Studios’ in Scotland. Lyrically, Eld Varg are combative, triumphant and introspective, often rubbing shoulders with the gods with original and victorious tales.
In 2022, an acoustic version of the song 'Wastelands' from One Man Army was released to raise money for Ukraine. A professionally recorded music video was released alongside this.
On the 19th May 2023, a rerecorded, updated, and significantly improved version of One Man Army was released, subtitled the ‘Reinforced Edition’. This saw each song rerecorded, highlighting the growth in musicianship, production, professionalism and overall presentation of Ollie and Eld Varg. This is the final and perfect version of One Man Army, with focus now on Album 2, which will be recorded and released in 2024. Alongside the Reinforced Edition, reinforcements have landed in the form of Micah Snow and Andy Hedges to form the power trio that took Eld Varg to the stage in 2023. Overwhelmingly positive feedback has seen Eld Varg take the Scottish underground metal scene by storm. This has led to performances in 2024 including the Metal 2 the Masses competition, Wildfire festival, a short supporting run with Tailgunner and their first headline gig.
