Seid - Hymns To The Norse - CD DIGIPAK

The new album from SEID, “Hymns To The Norse” takes great inspiration from the old folk music of the Scandinavian region. In many ways this album is more of a concept album than Svart Sól was (the previous album). The sejd drum intro “Hymn To Ivar” opens it up in a even more traditional fashion but then you get brass sections and the sound develops more and more throughout the album towards more recognition as Black Metal. Hymn To The North closes the album, referring to that all the songs you just heard were hymns, previously untold but in our common ancestry, deeply buried.

With its raw, lo-fi sound, eerie vocals, sejd drum, Hammond organs and haunting atmospheres, this album pushes the boundaries of Black Metal while exploring the Norse roots.

Hymns To The Norse takes you to the past… and brings the past into you.
