Our Take

It's not every day that an album comes along that makes you want to grab a spear, don a fur cloak, and chant ancient Norse incantations under the full moon. But that's exactly the effect that HEILUNG's Drif (Deluxe Hardcover Book Edition) had on me.

From the moment you press play, you're transported to a world where the spirits of the past converge with the raw power of the present, creating a sonic tapestry that is both hypnotic and exhilarating. The blend of traditional folk instruments, guttural chants, and primal drumming creates a visceral listening experience that will leave you feeling simultaneously invigorated and haunted.

Tracks like "Norupo" and "Traust" are perfect examples of the band's ability to weave together ancient traditions with modern sensibilities, creating a sound that is both timeless and utterly contemporary. The haunting vocals of Maria Franz and Kai Uwe Faust add an ethereal quality to the music, transporting you to a place where myths and legends come to life.

Overall, Drif (Deluxe Hardcover Book Edition) is a must-listen for anyone with a love of music that defies boundaries and pushes the limits of what is possible. HEILUNG have created a masterpiece that will stand the test of time, and I, for one, can't wait to see what they do next. Trust me, this album is not to be missed.

About the artist

Heilung

HEILUNG are not just a band, but a visceral, transcendental experience. Hailing from Denmark, this enigmatic collective defies traditional genre labels, blending ancient Nordic sounds with modern production techniques to create a sonic universe unlike anything else in the music industry. Led by vocalists Maria Franz and Kai Uwe Faust, HEILUNG's live performances are nothing short of awe-inspiring. Wielding primitive instruments such as bones, horns, and drums, the group brings ancient rituals to life on stage, casting a spell over audiences and transporting them to a bygone era. Their music is a haunting cacophony of tribal chants, ethereal melodies, and thunderous percussion. Songs like "Krigsgaldr" and "Norupo" evoke a primal energy that resonates deep within the listener, stirring emotions that are both primal and universal. HEILUNG's dedication to authenticity is unparalleled. From their handcrafted costumes to their meticulously researched lyrics, every aspect of their artistry is steeped in historical accuracy. This commitment to detail sets them apart from their contemporaries, earning them a devoted following and critical acclaim. In a world dominated by cookie-cutter pop stars and soulless algorithms, HEILUNG stand out as a beacon of originality and creativity. Their music is a reminder that there is still magic to be found in the world, if only we are brave enough to seek it out. So, close your eyes, open your ears, and let HEILUNG take you on a journey through time and space. You won't regret it.
