ARCKANUM
Kampen (2021)

Comes with an additional cardboard slipcase cover.

The album is a dedication to Surtr; Giant and Ruler of the world of flames Múspellzheimr, and Loki; the Flaming Giant and Archenemy of the worlds. ”Sviga Læ” is a manifestation of the blazing Chaos and the burning of the gods.



Regain

The band was founded in 1992 by Shamaatae, who had previously played drums in CONQUEST/GROTESQUE (which were to become AT THE GATES). Shamaatae is also renowned for his occult writings on Pan, anti-cosmic Satanism, Norse tradition, runic witchcraft and chaos-Gnosticism, all of which inspire his music. Now “Helvítismyrkr” marks the next step in the evolution of ARCKANUM by adding strong influences from the 80’s to its unique Black and Death Metal mix. Descend into the dark realm of Hel!
 

Season of Mist

Sweden's black metal troll ARCKANUM return with his eighth opus, "Fenris Kindir"!! Equal parts ripping riffs and howled vocals from the edge of Ragnarok, "Fenris Kindir" expands on the darkness of "Helvitismyrkr" and finds ARCKANUM taking a battle axe to the world. Having emerged from the black metal underground, the bludgeoning brute force of the "Fenris Kindir" demands the respect and fear that plundering raiders from the North commanded centuries prior.
 

Season of Mist

“Första Trulen” is the very first recording of the classic “Trulen” demo tape released by ARCKANUM in 1994. Shamaatae, solo member of the band, recorded this demo by himself on a Fostex 4-track portastudio cassette tape recorder in 1994, but he didn’t like how it turned out, so he recorded it all over again and this recording was left in a box until now. 

The release includes the very first version of the song “Ængin Oforhærra” which was not on the previously released demo! And all the ambient songs are the experimental first versions. 
The songs were newly mixed and mastered.
