Today, Nordic cinematic ambient artist Thyrmr – AKA Trym Torson, former drummer of Emperor and Enslaved – reveals the new tracks “Vandringen” and “Trusselen.” The tracks are the firstto be revealed from his highly anticipated debut album, Saga of the North, set for international release on November 27th via Darkness Shall Rise Productions. Hear Thyrmr‘s “Vandringen” HERE and “Tusselen” HERE, both in their entirety at Darkness Shall Rise‘s official YouTube channel.
Trym Torson, who is widely known as having been the drummer on landmark albums of Norwegian black metal like Emperor’s Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk or Enslaved’s Vikingligr veldi and Frost, moved into uncharted waters by composing music inspired by his longstanding passion for movie soundtracks and ambient music. Thyrmr doesn’t have much in common with black metal, but the eight tracks that make up the debut album Saga of the North are not to be missed if you are into dark sounds àla Mortiis or Summoning!
