Viking Metal, Folk Metal, War Metal, dallamos metal, dallamos death metal, black metal, thrash metal és groove metal hatásokkal, 2014-es album.
The leading Danish Viking-metal band, VANIR, released their third album in October 2014. This album marks a new stylistic direction with influences from a number of melodic metal genres – but still centered on the Viking and battle thematic. Behold the Glorious Dead! Coming off of their second album „Onwards Into Battle”, the Vanir anno 2014 is set to give praise to the „Glorious Dead” throughout the ages of man.
After experiencing a line-up change in 2013, Vanir remains dedicated to writing and producing Viking and battle themed metal with influences from melodic death metal, black metal, thrash and groove metal, and with a sharper edge than ever before! Once again the band has visited Berno Paulsson at Berno Studios in Malmö for the production of „The Glorious Dead”.
After the release of „Searimners Kod” in March 2011 things have gone quickly for the metal warriors of Vanir and a mighty following of brave Einherjer and Valkyries have joined the band under their banner and message. The line of followers only got larger when the band released their praised follow-up album „Onwards Into Battle” in September 2012.
Vanir have, over the years, played countless shows in their home country of Denmark, as well as in the surrounding countries of Sweden, Norway and Germany. They seek to ignite the crowd in a raucous bash of metal and a celebration of warriors throughout history, and a highly energetic live show has always been a prime focus of the way in which Vanir approaches their music.
This has not changed with their exploration of a more brutal sound on their most recent album „The Glorious Dead”, and Vanir continues to play both national and international shows and festivals.
Going into the future, Vanir will continue to seek to thrill crowds with their unique blend of melodic death metal and the traditional war instrument of Scottish highland Bagpipes. Join them on the field of battle and earn your place amongst the Glorious Dead!
