Background information about '1184'

Released in 2001, WINDIR's third album '1184' represents a pivotal moment in the band's evolution. While maintaining its black metal roots, the album introduces electronic elements that broaden its sonic palette. This experimentation led to mixed initial reactions but has since been recognized as a bold step forward. The blending of genres showcases Valfar's and Hvall's creative prowess, resulting in a work that is atmospheric yet unafraid to diverge from traditional paths.

Today, '1184' is celebrated as a milestone in WINDIR's discography and a favorite among fans. The album's ability to invoke the cold landscapes of Norway through its haunting melodies and relentless rhythms is unparalleled. Tracks like "Todeswalzer" and "Journey to the End" evoke both grandeur and despair, making '1184' a timeless piece that continues to inspire and resonate within the metal community.
