More about 'Hin Helga Kvöl' "Hin helga kvöl" is a deep dive into the raw beauty and emotional landscapes, inspired by Sólstafir’s rich cultural heritage and the stark, breathtaking landscapes of Iceland. The album captures the essence of 'crepuscular rays,' a metaphor for hope piercing through darkness, resonating with themes of inner struggles and triumphs. Recorded in the remote Skagafjörður at Flóki Studios, this change of scenery infuses the album with an atmospheric depth that is both haunting and uplifting. The album's eight tracks seamlessly blend Sólstafir's signature melancholic sound with their black metal roots, interwoven with tuneful rock anthems. The title "Hin helga kvöl," translating to 'The Holy Suffering,' encapsulates the universal human struggle through its profound spiritual and existential reflections. The evocative cover art by Rowan E Cassidy mirrors the album's depth, portraying a world where shadows dance amidst light. "Hin helga kvöl" stands as a testament to Sólstafir's ability to transcend genres, weaving together elements from Black Metal, Classic Rock, Post-Rock, and Punk to create a sound as unique as the Icelandic landscapes that inspire them.

Limited edition white vinyl presented in a gatefold sleeve. More about 'Moþir' In the music of Forndom, the past breathes with a vitality that transcends time. "Moþir" is as complex as the deities it portrays, weaving together themes of fertility and loyalty, love and betrayal, light and shadow. It is an exploration of divine ambiguity, where the nurturing embrace of a mother can just as easily turn into the cold hand of inevitability. Here, Ludvig Swärd strips away the modern trappings of synthesizers, embracing a purely acoustic sound. The music feels as though it has been carved from the very earth, born from instruments fashioned by hand and played with reverence for the ancient. Recorded and mixed by Swärd himself, "Moþir" features the talents of Thomas von Wachenfeldt (Bards of Skaði), whose violin conjures both light and darkness; Janne Posti (Häxkapell, Sons of Crom), whose choral tones add a numinous depth; and Draugurinn, whose haunting presence lingers like a spirit from a forgotten age. Forndom’s latest offering is a meditation on the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth, seen through the lens of ancient Scandinavian spirituality. Ludvig Swärd continues to stand at the crossroads of the past and present, offering a glimpse into the heart of ancient wisdom through the eyes of a modern seeker.
