Vanir

Who doesn’t believe in ancient Norse Mythology…
After Vanir from the Netherlands died in battle they got a task form Odin to help people with mead, meat and metal. The Vanir appeared in Denmark this time, in the shape of a multitalented buch of Danish, with roots in the Black Metal, Funk, Classical Music, Death Metal, Opera and traditional Irish and Scottish Folk.
Nice background to dive in world of folk-metal. With sometimes pretty alcoholic interpretations of myths and legends they raid many places.
Unfortunately for the folk-metal fans, the band changed their style a bit and it were the folk-elements which got cut away.
