Bio:
Vanir is one of Denmark’s most well know and prominent Viking Metal bands and has, since the band’s inception, released five full length albums and has their 6th album Sagas out early 2022. Vanir plays a melodic death-metal infused brand of Viking Metal.The themes of the band’s lyrics are found amongst Norse mythology as well as historical interpretations of the deeds of the Vikings. From the halls of Valhalla to the Germanic battlefields with their bloody battles and fierce warriors, the band’s music has been put together, without compromise, with a fascination with our common origins, and the blood spilled throughout history.
Album:
Danish Viking melodic death metal warriors Vanir are back in 2022 with Sagas. These warriors have released five well received albums to date and Sagas doesn’t disappoint. Like previous albums, Sagas, their sixth release, spans various Viking and Nordic related themes, however Vanir have sneaked in a J.R.R. Tolkien based song “Battle of Middle-Earth, in what appears to be a dedication to one of the most important fantasy writers in history.On this release we see epic melodic and a fierce soundscape highlighted through the vocals and guitars on all12 tracks. There really are no surprises here. Vanir provide the listener with epic Viking metal and storytelling. Their approach to this style of music is a bit different than bands such as Ensiferum, and Turisas, the emphasis is more in your face power and aggressive guitar licks, laced with screaming Viking vocals with less emphasis on keyboard melodies. I would equate their sound to be similar to Amon Amarth, but less of the commercial elements. Favorite tracks thus far would be “Battle of Middle-Earth”, “See The Dragons Ride”, “Dødsfærd” and “Andvari’s Curse”. For fans of Manegarm, Unleashed, and Einherjer.
