In a rich musical tapestry, Wardruna use a broad selection of both traditional and historical instruments such as Kraviklyre, Trossingenlyre, Taglharpa, Sootharp, Langeleik, Crwth, Goathorn, Lur, Bronzelur, flute, Moraharpa, and the record also features guest appearances by a small group of prominent traditional singers, spearheaded by Kirsten Braringten Berg, one of the most important custodians of Norwegian traditional song. Throughout eleven songs, Kvitravn discusses Northern sorcery, spiritanimals, shadows, nature and animism, the wisdom and meanings of certain myths, various Norse spiritual concepts, and the relation between sage and songs.About the new album, Wardruna founder Einar Selvik reveals, To recite and copy the past is not very difficult, but to understand and integrate ancient thoughts, tools and methods with real purpose into a creation that is relevant to the modern era is truly challenging and remains our prime goal in our work He continues, although the album carries a variant of my own totemic artist name, it has, in this context, little to do with me but rather refers to the symbolism and legends of sacred white animals found in Nordic and other cultures all over the world. These highly regarded ghostly creatures, whether a raven, snake, bear, moose, reindeer, elephant or lion are in animist traditions seen as prophetic, divine messengers, and guardians representing renewal, purity and a bridge between worldsrdquo.Wardruna have carved a rich, polyphonic and dramatic musical landscape that honours the ancient past without gimmick, whilst simultaneously illuminating meaningful expressions of Norse tradition through intrinsically detailed contemporary composition. Beyond genre, theirs is a sound that must be truly experienced. Wardruna Heavyweight-LP is available for home delivery from Vinyl Records London, only £25
A heavyweight LP refers to a vinyl record pressed on thicker, high-quality vinyl, typically weighing between 180 and 200 grams. This format is favoured by audiophiles due to its superior sound quality, as the thicker vinyl reduces surface noise and distortion, resulting in a cleaner, more detailed listening experience.
Heavyweight LPs not only deliver better sound but also feel more substantial and durable. The increased vinyl thickness helps preserve the integrity of the music over time, making them a preferred choice for collectors who seek enhanced audio performance. With their premium quality and attention to detail, heavyweight LPs offer an elevated listening experience that brings out the best in any record collection.
