“Nifelheim” is the first single and accompanying video from Fejd’s upcoming fifth studio album of the same name. Inviting listeners to embrace a realm of death and ice, the track opens the gates to a world steeped in ancient Nordic myth and mysticism.

From the very first note, Nifelheim draws the listener into a landscape of forgotten legends, carried by powerful arrangements and the evocative spirit of Nordic melancholy. With their signature blend of traditional folk instruments and modern metal, Fejd once again demonstrates why they are regarded as one of the leading names in folk metal.

Bridging two worlds with remarkable authenticity, the band combines the strength and intensity of heavy metal with the rich melodies, timeless traditions, and haunting beauty of Nordic folk music. The result is a captivating and immersive musical journey that sets the tone for what promises to be Fejd’s most ambitious album to date.

Fejd – Nifelheim – out now on all digital plattforms.

Fejd – Nifelheim (the album) – release date August 21 on Black Lodge Records / Sound Pollution.

MORE ABOUT FEJD

Fejd was formed in 2001 through a fusion of the folk music duo Rimmerfors and three members of the metal band Pathos and Nostradameus. Rimmerfors played folk music with medieval undertones, performing on contemporary instruments, and together with their childhood friends of Pathos, they transformed into a refined band with the best of both worlds – the weight of heavy metal in symbiosis with the typical melodic language and sadness of the nordic folk music.

The brothers interest in swedish medieval folk music started back in 1995, commenced by music studying and the feeling of wanting to explore new musical ground and try something new. The musical background has its roots in heavy metal music, growing up listening to acts as Iron Maiden, Mercyful Fate and Bathory. Inspiration is also drawn from like-minded bands such as Garmarna and Hedningarna.

Throughout the years Fejd has played numerous festivals around Europe, Wacken Open Air, Hellfest, Sweden Rock Festival, Montreux Jazz Festival, Summer Breeze, Cernunnos Pagan Fest, Ragnarök Festival and Karmøygeddon, to name a few.

Finally, after many years of waiting, Fejd’s fifth full-length Nifelheim arrives. Already at the first note, you are accompanied by legends from ancient times, along with powerful arrangements and the musical language of Nordic melancholy. With their folk instruments, Fejd consolidates the legacy that has made them great names in folk metal.
