Seeing Wardruna live is quite the experience wherever you catch them.

The Swedish vikings of Grimner offer you “Vanadrottning”; another serving of heavy folk metal!

Danish collective Heilung is best described as an evil union between the Dutch practitioners of pagan, Omnia and the Scandinavian Wardruna, they are neither as gung-ho fun as the former nor as deadly serious as the latter.

2018 starts with the release of the first album of Leaves’ Eyes with their new singer Elina Siirala. Find out here how that turned out.

We went for the challenge to get our own beer made and the result was interesting!

A very unique and complex beer coming from a unique Viking recipe, tasted by us in a similarly unique setting at Midgardsblot!
