THYRFING: 'Back As A Six-Piece Again!'

March 20, 2009

Swedish "viking metallers" THYRFING have issued the following update:

"We are glad to welcome Fredrik Jansson (ex-DYSPLASIA) as new full-time member and guitarist of THYRFING. Fredrik has been helping us out as session member during the shows we made in 2008 and it has been working out extremely well on all levels. So from today, the band is back as a six-piece again!"

War Anthem Records will release the vinyl edition of "Hels Vite", the latest album from THYRFING, at the end of March.

"Hels Vite" came out in the U.S. on January 27 via Regain Records.

The third video teaser for "Hels Vite" can be viewed below. Released in Europe on October 22, 2008 via Regain Records, the CD was co-produced (with the band) by Jörgen Svensson of Tyroon Production and the cover artwork (see below) was created by the Swedish artist Mikael Schelén. The layout and the photos were handled by Jens Rydén.

THYRFING in 2007 announced the addition of Jens Rydén as the band's new vocalist. Jens is best known as founding member and ex-vocalist of NAGLFAR and for his one-man army PROFUNDI.

THYRFING's fifth album, "Farsotstider" (in English: "Times of Plague"),was released in November 2005 via Regain Records.
