GRAFVITNIR album2017

Swedish Black Metal band GRAFVITNIR have released a new song from forthcoming album Keys to the Mysteries Beyond. Stream 'Vargavinter' below:

 

 

GRAFVITNIR will release 'Keys to the Mysteries Beyond' December 15 on Carnal Records. A promo video for the album's opening track, "Nidhögg," is available below:

 

 

The driving force behind the band is, and has always been, Occultism and the never-ending quest for the enigmatic emerald of Lucifer. Just like razor sharp claws of a Werewolf move and twists against whirling moonlit Night Skies, the ice-cold blades of Occultism will tear the illusion of the demiurg's false Creation apart and fiercely widen the cracks and crevices to the ancient kingdom of Beyond.

 

With the band's fifth album, GRAFVITNIR are back from the frostbitten shadows of Scandinavia to eternally ignite the concealed spiritual Fire of the descendants of the Serpent, and to obtain the ancient Keys to the Mysteries Beyond.

 

"Ten violent and malicious tracks. Keys to the Mysteries Beyond is an unrelenting and unforgiving release."
- Cadaver Garden

 

"If you are a fan of raw and melodic occult black metal, you should check out this album."
- Occult Black Metal Zine
