NORTHERN WARRIORS#Lyrics: Nordic Mythology, Nature
NORTHERN WARRIORS#Year: 2009

It was time of the autumn moon in the year 2003 in Raahe Finland when Ojalehto and Ahola got the idea of founding a folk metal band to awake something old that was forgotten and honour the nature in our way. We started to make songs and write lyrics for this band. Soon we made up the name “Vigrid” that represents to us the oldtimes when our ancestors were part of the nature and believed that each man chooses his own paths to walk . So we decided to make a demo in our own amateur studio called “Gjaller”. After two months of work we had accomplished our first demo in December and it was named “Anxious Soul”.

NORTHERN WARRIORS#Year: 2009

Asteria was created in 2004 as an one man band of melodic black metal , in Geneva, by Asteria, of his true name Deniz. This last one began by composing in midi to retranscribe these scores in electronic instruments. Both first ones cds "Deep Space" and "Earth Philosophy" were so recorded. A period of acoustic tries came then which will give "Acoustica" in 2005. Afterward, Asteria composes a demo "The promised land" and records it in 2006. In the same year, "Circle of nature " is recorded . These two albums are a change regard to the precedents because they include real guitars and a real bass. Asteria thus records guitars, bass and singing; the drum kit being a rhythm box. The mini--cd "Contemplation" is born. It is a completely acoustic cd. In 2009, the cd " The lights " is born.

For the lyrical themes, the words turn around the space, the nature, the diverse philosophies and especially on a questioning of the human behavior.

NORTHERN WARRIORS#Year: 1995

Death is widely considered one of the most influential bands in the genre. The band’s debut, "Scream Bloody Gore", has been described as “death metal’s first archetypal document,” and Schuldiner himself as the “father of death metal”. However, Schuldiner dismissed such attributions in an interview with Metal-Rules.com, stating, “I don’t think I should take the credit for this death metal stuff. I’m just a guy from a band, and I think Death is a metal band.”

THERN WARRIORS#Lyrics: personal struggles, fears and emotions, life issues
THERN WARRIORS#Year: 2009

First work!! Friend band!
Translation in comments

Hoy se dirigía a mi Toni, el cantante de esta banda para informarme de que ya tenían listo su primer album. Al fin! Desde NW la relación que hemos mantenido con esta banda ha sido como mínimo de amistosa desde su inicio unos años atras gracias a Toni que es con quien principalmente o exclusivametne he hablado. Conocemos varias bandas incipientes del panorama nacional pero como esta ninguna, por su afan de superacion, su esfuerzo la dedicacion y la busqueda de un sonido propio y no solo ya por su sonido si no por la calidad humana de estos tios, que muchos no le dareis importancia pero yo estoy harto de pavos bordes, infantiles, creidos super darks o "superstars" y undergrounds... entonces cuando te encuentras unos tios como estos se te alegra hasta la cara, gente respetable, madura, trabajadora, humilde y educada, honorable al fin y al cabo. Gente de bien en lo personal y en lo musical gente de esa que falta por el mundo. Una banda con mucho potencial y ganas y madera para desarrollarlo. Northern Warriors apuesta por karlahan.

Antes de subir el disco lo he estado escuchando analíticamente en cuanto al estilo predominan los teclados creando un toque sinfonico en todo el album. Las canciones son muy variopintas entre si, la intro es muy peliculera muy epica, eso que karlahan saben hacer tan bien. Luego hay canciones que combinan casi todas las variantes del metal, lo mas predominante seria quizás un death melódico o por lo menos es en la variante que mas me gustan estos chicos, hay elementos black, toques góticos algún discreto acercamiento al doom, solos power, melodias folk... veo este debut como una declaracion de intenciones que promete personalmente me quedaria con la ultima cancion "Reverie" es la que veo quizá mas uniforme y que tiene mejor encajados los diferentes elementos propios de la banda en general. Pero hay otras canciones con partes muy buenas, y hasta un momento que te parece estar escuchando summoning, ya lo encontrareis si os poneis a ello jeje.

En resumen una presentación grandiosa (destaco que es un disco auto-producido) de una banda que promete mostrando una gran variedad de repertorio y estilos que de saber encajar y definir de la mejor forma posible podríamos estar ante una de las grandes.

A todo esto como puntilla final remarcar que todos los que hayáis oído el ultimo álbum de Equilibrium "Sagas" habeís escuchado a mi colega Toni cantando en la cancion "Blut Im Auge" para mas información visitar su myspace jeje.

The band would like to add that this album has been like a hell to them, because of the long time working on it and all the sacrifices supposed. So the long-awaited album finally is here, hope your enjoying, the long waiting has been worthy!
