Background information über 'Av norrøn ætt'

"Av Norrøn Ætt" stands as Helheim's most ambitious and creatively explosive work, a 1997 masterpiece that pushed the boundaries of Norwegian black metal into uncharted territories. This remastered edition brings new life to an album that seamlessly weaves together chaotic black metal fury with pronounced folk and Viking influences, creating an epic scope that few bands have managed to achieve. The album showcases the band's evolution from their debut "Jormundgand", replacing high-pitched screaming with grim croaking vocals while intensifying every element that made their sound distinctive. The complex, lengthy tracks reveal intricate arrangements that demonstrate Helheim's musical maturity and willingness to experiment.

The title track particularly shines as a stunning fusion of black metal aggression, Viking music traditions, and progressive rock influences - a combination that shouldn't work but absolutely does. Remastered by Patrick W. Engel at Temple of Disharmony, this edition includes a detailed interview covering the band's formative years from 1992-1997, providing crucial insight into this pivotal period of Norwegian extreme metal. The album's intensity and ambition remain unmatched in Helheim's discography, representing a unique moment where creativity and technical prowess converged perfectly.

For fans of:
Enslaved, Bathory, Borknagar, Windir and Moonsorrow
