Nidviser

The third album tells 12 different stories around one theme: 18th-century capital punishments in Norway.

Bleaker, colder, and a tad more melancholic, Nidviser tells twelve separate stories centered on a common theme. Where Dalmunr was a concept album set to one fictional tale, this album draws its stories from 18th- and 19th-century capital punishments in Norway.

The musical vision is to show more of Blodtørst's metal spectrum by balancing bleak and cold aggressiveness with primal brutality. The album was recorded, mixed, and mastered at Grimsland Studio in Trondheim.

No Fixed Route

The band found common ground in wanting to create music under the extreme metal banner. From the start, the mantra has been to follow no fixed sonic route.

Members can bring anything to the table, and the band will bend it into Blodtørst. That freedom runs through the debut album Ferd, the story-led Dalmunr, and the coming third album Nidviser.

The sound favors organic violence over studio polish: bleak and cold aggression balanced against the band's more primal brutality.
