Aethyrien - Naglfar, Ship of the Dead
New album out now!:
Music written for
Literally translated into “Nail-farer“, Naglfar is a massive ship made up of the fingernails and toenails of the dead while its sails are weaved from their hair. I attempted to capture a dark and intense atmosphere with this song while incorporating major Old Norse, metal, dance and folk influences. Let me know what you think!!
“Hrym advances from the east
with a shield before him,
and the Midgard-serpent
is in a monstrous rage.
The serpent beats the waves,
and the eagle screams eagerly,
splitting corpses with its pale beak.
Naglfar, the giants’ ship, is released.
Naglfar sails from the east,
bearing giants over the sea,
and Loki is its captain.
The giants are coming
together with Fenrir,
and Loki too is with them
on that voyage.“
NOTE: The entire tagelharpa was recorded in a single take, so mistakes are hidden throughout. I have also used some bones I have found on the beach where I live in this song to help ground the listener with an organic nature, offsetting some of the cinematic atmosphere that’s inevitable in my writing. :)
