Eihwar – “Viking War Trance” (Official Music Video)
Hold onto your battle axes, mortals! The apocalypse has a soundtrack, and it’s about to shake Valhalla. Say hello to EIHWAR‘s latest drum-pounding & shamanic auditory assault – Viking War Trance, the fire-breathing, pulse-pounding single from their upcoming debut album.

From the primordial screams of Mark and Asrunn, emerges a sonic riot that’s part berserker brawl, part rave from Valhalla itself. Viking War Trance is an anthem for the wild, untamed spirits dancing on the edge of Ragnarök. With the raw power and primal beats of ancient Norse warriors, fused with the electrifying chaos of modern trance, this track smashes the past into the future like Thor swinging his hammer.

“We are heavy drops of rain announcing lightning”, says Eihwar. “May Viking War Trance be the pagan primal cry that unleashes your inner beast. Become who you are, brothers and sisters! Arise! No fear, no limits!

Viking War Trance is out September 20 on Season of Mist.

Many bands have explored the Pagan & Norse worlds over the last 15 years seeking atmospheric, acoustic and ritual sounds with great seriousness. This is not the path EIHWAR chose.
Although the musicians of Eihwar are virtuosos in their acoustic traditional instruments, their goal is to bring some fun… and as much chaos as possible during their concerts, provoking the craziest trance on dancefloors. They bring a festive and furious neo-viking music whose primal force is based on technoid machines, mixed with trance vocals, shamanic drums and traditional Nordic sounds. Electronics are a ‘new steel’ for those modern warriors, cold and powerful. As the web already says, the duo is a kind of new ‘Viking Carpenter Brut’.

Thus, Eihwar named the single, the album but also their style of music ‘Viking War Trance’.

We are heavy drops of rain announcing lightning.
We call for war:
A war waged against our judgments,
Our inner demons, our limits,
Our stiffness of body and mind.
We don’t want our best enemies to spare us
Nor to be spared by those we love.
We invoke a war for our thoughts,
A flamboyant chaos of fire & ice,
Cradle of creation.

Since its appearance on YouTube in February 2023, Eihwar has shook the Internet and concert venues. The band experienced rapid expansion on YouTube and was quickly booked by major European festivals such as Hellfest, Leyendas del Rock, Wave Gotik Treffen & more to be announced!
