More about 'Ofnir' "Ofnir" marks the powerful debut of HEILUNG, a Danish band whose mission is to take listeners on an auditory journey through time and space, reflecting ancient Nordic traditions. With a blend of shamanic rhythms, throat singing, and traditional instruments, the album crafts an atmosphere that feels organically ritualistic and hauntingly beautiful. The production is crisp yet retains an earthy texture that heightens the band's hypnotic narratives. Each track immerses you deeper into a realm of pagan folklore, where history comes alive through sound. The album's success lies in its ability to transcend mere listening experiences, evolving into a meditative journey that evokes introspection and tranquility. The cover art by Kai Uwe Faust complements HEILUNG's sonic landscapes with visual mysticism, anchoring "Ofnir" as a timeless piece in the ambient folk genre. It's no wonder this debut has garnered significant attention for its authentic portrayal of ritual ambient music.

CD in deluxe sewnbound hardcover book (18 x 18cm) covered with cotton fabric and bronze hot foil stamping, containing 76-pages booklet. About the album HEILUNG means "healing" in the German language and this also describes the core of the band's sound. The listener is supposed to be left at ease and in a relaxed state after a magical musical journey that is at times turbulent. "Futha" was three years in the making and was finished for production and print at midwinter, the very darkest day of the solar year. At the opposite to "Ofnir", the new album is the counterpart, the balance point, the feminine side. Here, the lyrics originate from old Icelandic poetry. Hence, female voices are more prominent on "Futha". Any attempt to link the band with or bring their music into a modern political or religious context is pointless, since HEILUNG try to connect their listeners with a time before the coming of christianity and modern political ideologies.
