The Norwegian Royal Mail Features KEEP OF KALESSIN on Exclusive Postal Stamp

ESP signees KEEP OF KALESSIN recently announced the availability of their exclusive postal stamp with the Norwegian Royal Mail. The band took third place in the grand final of the national Eurovision Song Contest called "Melodi Grand Prix", which had taken place at the Spektrum in Oslo on February 6th.



The following is quoted from the KEEP OF KALESSIN myspace page:

“ As one of the artists in Melodi Grand Prix 2010, the norwegian Royal Mail has made stamps with KEEP OF KALESSIN on them. This is normally only done with the royal family or historic figures. The band got the official news and was also delivered the stamps at a small get-together in the home of Per Sundnes (the MGP host) on Friday Feb 5th with all the other MGP 2010 finalists. According to the band this is a big surprise and a huge step for metal in Norway.”

Obsidian C is currently playing various ESPs, including the Eclipse, Jeff Hanneman, LTD JH-600, LTD M-1000 and LTD FM-408. Wizziac can be seen with non other than the LTD F-415.
