Lyrics
Blood, War
Absolute Fury
shield covered in gold and ancient runes
He ripped the shield out from the man's chest,
The sky turned into rain
There was just one man left in the army who hadn't been
wounded
Stood there in boldness, new sword, unable
to move at the look of such a terrible display
Havamal 75 and 76
one man is rich,
another poor;
he must not blame his woe on him
Cattle die, kinsmen die, you yourself die;
One thing now that never dies
the fame of a dead man’s deeds.

Herknungr is a project that explores ancient
culture but primarily norse aspects. It was
formed over a love of ambient music, ritual
and folk music.
The aim of Herknungr is to provide a very rich
sound in coherence to viking era culture. To set
an authentic sound of the ancient nordic zeigeist.
Using instruments of our forebears over 1000 years
ago. With a modern twist in production.
