TEUTONIC-SWEDISH ALLIANCE  2007.11.05
Out now: "A New Age of Iron Vol. I", featuring an exclusive recording of the - to your ears - new Portrait song "Beware the Demons". And some other things as well; scroll down two news entries to find out what. Or better; visit New Iron Age for all the details and order this monumental compilation right away. UPDATE: Don't, for it sold out at the Keep it True festival last weekend, the same day it was released.




BOW UNTO THE DEVIL  2007.10.04
In late November, Portrait will enter the studio to record eight songs for a debut album.
    There is a new t-shirt design available by the way. Look.

T-SHIRTS  2007.08.31

Now for all those who asked for our notoriously sold out t-shirts, we have finally got a new delivery. Same motif, same everything.

BEWARE THE DEMONS  2007.07.13
"Sweden Vs. Germany" is the tentative title of a six-way split 12", coming this autumn on New Iron Age Records. Portrait, Enforcer and Ram will present one new song each while on side B, Atlantean Kodex, Metal Inquisitor and Delirium Tremens shall defend the colours of Großdeutschland.
    We have some patches for sale. Check merch. Also, a few photos from some of our latest gigs have been uploaded.

MORE SHOWS  2007.06.17
A brief update mainly to inform you that we have a few more shows coming up; in Germany (with Anvil!), Norway and Sweden. Check the live-section for details and links.
    And if you still don't have the 7" you'd better order it some day soon, as the copies are running out...


A NEW IRON AGE  2007.05.09

The "Into the Nothingness" 7" has finally been unleashed, and can be ordered from the label - not from the band at this point. One of the songs is audible on the MySpace-site.
    More off; to the sparkling string of pearls you will behold at Sweden Rock Festival next month, a pretty dark one has been added... Portrait enters the restaurant stage on the Thursday, 15:30. Come to the sabbat!

KEEP IT TRUE  2007.04.15
Autumn again approaches, with its frostbitten veil, and you can earmark the 3rd of November right away. That's when Portrait, next to a.o. the ancient British gods Pagan Altar, will perform at the ninth Keep It True festival (Dittigheim, Germany).

SINGLE AND SELL-OUTS  2007.03.28

The "Welcome to my Funeral" cassettes still sell like Hell actually, and we are now out of them again. For the moment we are waiting for another 100 copies to arrive from the printer, so keep the orders coming. Just be aware the delivery may take a little while. The same goes for the t-shirts which, except the XS size, are temporarily sold out. We will make more of those too very soon.
    Another update is that the two songs for the single have finally been sent to the label. Await a monumental release...

T-SHIRTS AND UPCOMING GIG  2007.01.28
Very beautiful Portrait t-shirts are now being sold. View merchandise-section for details, will ya. Also, a gig at Club Nocturnal in Gothenburg, May 26th, has been booked. Support acts yet to be announced...

ETT UTBROTT AV HÅRDROCK  2007.01.07

February the 23rd, Portrait will come to the Truckstop Alaska club in Gothenburg, along with the two respectable Swedish acts Helvetets Port and Enforcer. This will be one great night of metal madness, don't miss!
Entrance is 50 SEK.
