DIMMU BORGIR, BURZUM, MORBID ANGEL Songs Featured On 'Severed Ways' Soundtrack

September 20, 2007

According to Headbanger's Blog, songs by DIMMU BORGIR, BURZUM, MORBID ANGEL and JUDAS PRIEST will be featured in the soundtrack for "Severed Ways", an upcoming film about Vikings in the New World that's scheduled to make the rounds at next year's film festivals.

"Severed Ways" was written and directed by metal fan Tony Stone. The movie, produced by Heathen Films, takes place in 11th Century in North America, where Vikings, Indians and Irish monks are clashing for personal glory and religious dominance.

The plot (according to All Movie Gude): Many historians contend that Norse explorers settled on the North American continent long before it was "discovered" by Columbus, and this adventure blends historical research with the filmmakers' imagination in the tale of two 11th Century Vikings and their struggle to survive in a new land. Orn (Tony Stone) and Volnard (Fiore Tedesco) are the only two survivors of a bloody clash between their Viking clan and a band of Native Americans; aware that their best hope of survival is to move on, they set out to find a new territory to settle. While making their way through the wilderness of what is now the Canadian province of Newfoundland, Orn and Volnard encounter a pair of monks from Ireland who have escaped from a Viking camp. They quickly slay one of the monks, but they allow the other (David Perry) to live, and he joins them in their daily battle to scratch out an existence in the beautiful but forbidding landscapes. Along the way, Orn wins an unlikely companion, a native woman (Noelle Bailey) who first saw him as he was laying waste to her village.
