Askrinn’s upcoming debut “Hjørleifsljóð” is a black metal album that will surely impress many people.
Releasing in mid-November, “Hjørleifsljóð” is sung in 100% Norse and is “based on an authentic Icelandic text from the 13th century”.
Askrinn mean “the ash tree” in Old Norse, and a badass name sometimes leads to a badass album, and it did this time around.

Just a metal head who loves just about all metal. I want to spread the word about the REALLY great bands out there, well known and underground. I do this for fun and don’t want any sort of money from doing reviews. It’s its own reward. I also do daily reviews for my own review site, Head-Banger Reviews, where the reviews are longer and daily as mentioned. No bullshit, just here to have some fun, listen to cool music and meet cool people.
