about

NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL AT ITS BEST!!!

STRIDSMENN is the union between BORGARHOLT & AUSTKRIGAR, two bands formed by Arnjeir.

BORGARHOLT was formed in winter 2003 in order to pay tribute to Arnjeirs Norwegian ancestors and to the great art of Norwegian Black Metal. His music, while being deeply rooted in the traditional Norwegian scene, also shows it's own personality based on Norwegian folklore and melancholy.

During 2003-2005 BORGARHOLT released three demos, all of which were available in very limited quantities and only given to friends.

In 2005, AUSTKRIGAR was formed because Arnjeir wanted to compose music that was somewhat different from BORGARHOLT while at the same time he was working on the debut album of BORGARHOLT. Thus the AUSTRKRIGAR 3-track demo was created.

Early in 2006, Arnjeir started composing the material that would later become the debut album of STRIDSMENN. After three years of recording, re-recording and mixing, the album was finally ready and Arnjeir decided to merge his two projects BORGARHOLT & AUSTKRIGAR together into one - STRIDSMENN. A decision that had to be made in order to gain more compositional freedom and reach a higher standard with his art.

Northern Silence Productions, having been in contact with Arnjeir
since the AUSTKRIGAR-days, are proud to offer the first album of STRIDSMENN to an eager audience that, without doubt, was missing the spirit of mid-90s Norwegian Black Metal in most of today's Black Metal releases, especially those from Norway itself. Let it be known that STRIDSMENN have picked up the blazing torch of true Norwegian Black Metal that others so carelessly dropped while moving into obscurity. Fans of STRID, ANGANTYR, TAAKE, NASHEIM, old FORGOTTEN WOODS & early DIMMU BORGIR - welcome another torchbearer!
