Background information about 'Ørlog'
SKÁLD are back, and they're bringing the old spirits roaring to life with "Ørlog". This isn't just another folk metal record — it's a portal into a forgotten yet never truly lost age. The album, their first for Napalm Records, feels like fate itself had a hand in its creation. Just as the Norns weave the threads of destiny, "Ørlog" weaves ten new songs into a tapestry that invites you to listen, linger, and reflect on the consequences of the choices we make. These modern skalds don't simply make music; they resurrect ancient songs and breathe new fire into old traditions.
Long regarded as pioneers of the neofolk genre, SKÁLD deliver an impressive work of art with "Ørlog". The respectful treatment of their sources keeps old spirits alive and shapes a captivating world that feels both ancient and startlingly immediate. The language may sound unfamiliar at first, yet the music reaches straight for the soul. From the haunting opener "Draumakona" to the closing "Eldr ok iss", every track carries the weight of Norse mythology and the warmth of human emotion. This is folk music that doesn't just tell stories — it makes you feel them in your bones. A stunning addition to any collection of Scandinavian-inspired sounds, and a bold statement from a band at the height of their creative powers.
