The mythic viking war trance duo EIHWAR has just unleashed an intimate new music video for their single Sir Mannelig, a masterful cover of the timeless classic Herr Mannelig.
Sir Mannelig re imagines the legendary Scandinavian ballad, embracing a more acoustic and narrative-driven essence. While diverging from their explosive techno beats, EIHWAR retains their signature enchanting energy, creating a haunting, immersive experience that reveals their pure artistry beyond the electronic. Sir Mannelig is a unique, stripped-back gem within the context of EIHWAR‘s debut album, Viking War Trance—a wild, unrestrained sonic creation that has been described as “an electric mead-hall feast set to the soundtrack of the apocalypse.”
The album blends EIHWAR‘s dynamic Nordic soundscape with modern electronic energy, channeling the rage of Fenrir and the sorrow of Baldr in a series of epic anthems.
Viking War Trance is out now on Season of Mist.
