GRIMNER PREMIERES NEW VIDEO FOR “DODENS DANS” THROUGH NEW NOISE

Sweden’s favourite vikings, Grimner release their new single and video, “Dodens Dans” today, premiering the video through New Noise Magazine.

Regarding the single, the band says, “Brothers and sisters! Today we want to present a song to you from our latest album Vanadrottning. It is called “Dödens Dans” (Dance of Death), and it tells of an old challenge, in Sweden called “holmgång”. In ancient nordic times, it was a way to solve disputes, and this solution was simply single combat. The winner would have the right to whatever he may have wanted from the loser, but if this challenge was ever denied by somebody, they would be marked as a niding (outcast). It is a fast-paced and energetic song, filled with melodies of old. Enjoy, friends. And if you already have, enjoy it again!”

Grimner gives their audience a unique mixture of folk and metal, incorporating catchy melodies, folk instruments and heavy riffs into exciting, aggressive metal. With their dynamic and captivating music, lyrics sung in Swedish, and an image like they have recently arrived from some fantasy world, they have taken enthusiasts of both metal and folk music by storm. The band’s lyrics revolve around Norse mythology, folklore, historical adventures of Vikings and life in that same era.
