IHSAHN – Streaming New Song

IHSAHN’s new song “Nord” has arrived from the first of the pair of EPs he has scheduled for a release this year. This first cut entitled Telemark“, is described as being more influenced by his black metal roots and finds him utilizing Norwegian lyrics for the first time in his career. It will be released next Friday, February 14th, via Candlelight Records.

“From a strictly musical perspective, Norwegian singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Ihsahn is among the most influential and celebrated personas in European black metal history. He textures his metallic and progressive tendencies with ambient, industrial, techno, classical, and found sounds. His sound has evolved toward prog metal since his early days with pioneers Emperor. In that band he helped to architect a massively aggressive and threatening musical attack, complete with blistering tremolo picking, angular symphonic keyboards, and blastbeat drums that influenced the two generations of metal bands.” – All Music
