I’ve been to your site before but didn’t sign the guestbook. With the covid scare lots of bands aren’t playing. Your news says new members but nothing about gigs. I am in NY, but look for interesting bands live streaming from everywhere. There’s a video mentioned under your events. I’ll try to catch that. Love the site and songs on the player. Keep the magic!

Hi there, i read your blog from time to time and i own a
similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam feedback?

If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you can recommend?
I get so much lately it's driving me mad so any support is
very much appreciated.

Flight of Odin has encountered further delays in developing and releasing their next album. We have also met with additional personnel changes we did not anticipate.

Wondering about how to purchase your t-shirts and vinyl on Bandcamp. You don't seem to have those things up online.

Heard you on Forbidden Alliance

FLIGHT OF ODIN w/Xyra:
Original . Powerful . Distinctive!

MOOD: Unexpected...cataclysmic. "Mesmerizing, eerie, and yet brightly stunning in their delivery. Virtuoso lead guitar swirls deep within labyrinths, and then flames upward, flying between lightning and eagles. Memorable, image-laden lyrics tell fantastic tales, and herald warnings, with vocal clarity, precision, and verve. Powerful, clever drum beats and basslines drive us past our prescribed comfort zones, following fascinating detours, twists, and turns."

Message:
Past all pomp and circumstance...beyond any quests for fame...the human species must rise to save ourselves and the planet... or ignore the opportunities and Grace allotted us, and fall.

A friend in Northern CA turned me on to you guys. Good stuff, man. He said you played with a friend of his who moved out here. Anyway, I looked up the Flight of Odin on CD Baby and got a copy. Sounds cool. You need to tour. Ty. Take care!
