HELHEIM: 'Åsgards Fall' Mini-CD Details Revealed

September 24, 2010

HELHEIM, one of Norway's oldest Viking metal bands, recently shot a video for the song "Dualitet Og Ulver" ("Duality And Wolves") in the mountains surrounding the band's hometown of Bergen. The track is said to have been written about Hati and Skoll, the two wolves of Norsk legend who attempt to swallow both the sun and the moon.

A series of newly released stills from the video shoot can be found on the band’s web site. A couple of the pictures are available below.

"Dualitet Og Ulver" comes off HELHEIM's new mini-CD, "Åsgards Fall", which is scheduled for release on November 1 via Dark Essence Records. The six-track effort also contains two epic new tracks, written especially for this release, as well as a new recording of the HELHEIM classic "Jernskogen" , originally found on the "Blod & Ild" album. "Dualitet Og Ulver" itself is the video mix of the track that will appear on the band's forthcoming full-length release, "Heiðinðómr Ok Mótgangr", due out at the beginning of 2011.

Recorded at the Conclave and Earshot studios in Bergen, "Åsgards Fall" was produced by HELHEIM and Bjornar Nilsen (VULTURE INDUSTRIES, BLACK HOLE GENERATOR),and was mastered by Herbrand Larsen (ENSLAVED, AUDREY HORNE). The mini-CD also features guest appearances by Hoest (TAAKE),Gunnar Emmerhoff (EMMERHOF AND THE MELANCHOLY BABIES) and PV on vocals, and Trine Mjanger on French horn.
