Vévaki // Fórnspeki

// CD // 2022 // Sung in Icelandic // Gothic // 9 tracks // 44 minutes //

If you haven't had a previous life in the Viking Age, Vévaki is organizing a catch-up session for you with his captivating music that wraps choirs, cavernous male voices and ancient instruments (lyre, taglharpa, percussion, Pontic lyra) in circumvolute and hypnotic melodies. The idea we have of pagan rituals of ancient times.

In titles like Jötnablót (The Giant's Curse) or Heimdalagaldr (Heimdalar's Magic), we can well believe in the magic of geysers that spring from the earth and auroras that animate the sky.

After rehearsing their first songs in a cave (!), the group called upon the singer Hrafnhildur Inga Guðjónsdóttir for Fórnspeki , their second album. She is also the creator of a witchcraft festival in Hólmavík (!!), open to beginners and guaranteed to be free of flying broomsticks.
