Taake | Noregs Vaapen – Special Edition (Cd+Dvd) | 2CD

Taake is a black metal band from Bergen, Norway, founded in 1995 by Hoest (Ørjan Stedjeberg). The band began as Thule in 1993 and changed its name to Taake in 1995, a name that refers to the fog around the seven mountains of Bergen. The profile describes Taake as a solo project of Hoest, who often handles all instruments on recordings and uses session musicians depending on the project.

Noregs Vaapen is a special edition set by Taake on Karisma Records, released on 5 December 2025 in Norway, with one CD and one DVD. The CD presents the album remixed and remastered from the original multitracks for the first time. The DVD contains the Noregs Vaapen anniversary concert, performed live in full at Vulkan, Oslo in 2021. The DVD is listed for Region 2 (Europe) and Region 1 (Canada and USA), and the edition is limited to 1000 copies.
