HJELVIK release new song ‘Helgrinda’

HJELVIK have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Helgrinda, is taken from the Norwegian blackened Viking heavy metal solo-band’s upcoming debut album Welcome to Hel, which will be released November 20th via Nuclear Blast.

Frontman and songwriter Erlend Hjelvik comments: Helgrinda is one of my personal favorites on the album and is sung entirely in Norwegian. It’s one of the more black metal leaning songs on the album and so it felt appropriate to write the lyrics in my native tongue. The lyrics revolve around ancient Scandinavian burial rites and chronicles a fateful journey to the Norse underworld Hel.”

Welcome to Hel is set for release November 20th via Nuclear Blast. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
