WARDRUNA "Lyfjaberg" 12" single, single sided, etched, white vinyl, limited. Rare!
Brand new, sealed.
A: "Lyfjaberg" (8:03) B: (Etched)
If you know Wardruna, then you've probably already heard "Lyfjaberg" on YouTube (31 million views, 400,000 likes, 14,000 comments) or streamed it on Spotify (6.4 million streams), etc. so you don't need to be told that it's possibly their best work yet.
Released in September 2020 and manufactured to meet pre-orders made by the end of June, the limited vinyl release was only available directly from Einar Selvik's own By Norse Music label and was thus effectively sold out in advance. I can't tell you how many were made (maybe a few hundreds, maybe a couple of thousands) but I can tell you that they don't come up for sale very often because those that have them want to keep them!
"Lyfjaberg" was recorded in spring 2020 under lockdown by a core trio of Einar Selvik (composer, vocals and all instruments) with backing vocals from Lindy-Fay Hella of Wardruna and Iver Sandoy of Enslaved and Huggsja. It means "healing mountain" in old Norse, so its intention was clear.
This is pagan ambient neo-folk at its finest from the undoubted masters (and mistress) of the genre.
