We are glad to announce a new co-operation between Thyrfing and Dragon Productions for bookings and live shows.
We go way back with both people in the staff and many bands on their roster, and surely this will bring great opportunities and possibilities for the future.
Today we are releasing our third single from the upcoming “Vanagandr” album.
JÄRNHAND (Eng: “Iron Hand”) is a track with both grit and guts, melody and mood – and notorious listeners might certainly recognize the band from the mid 2000’s and albums like “Vansinnesvisor” and “Farsotstider” here. The track is released along with artwork by Niklas Sundin and a stunning video directed by Patric Ullaeus.
You can stream it through your favorite streaming service here: https://despotz.ffm.to/jarnhand

We proudly release our second single from the upcoming album “Vanagandr”.
JORDAFÄRD (Eng: ”Burial”) is a brooding epic that demonstrates a slower, moody and slightly different side of the band compared to the first single “Döp dem i eld” that was released earlier this year. The track is released along with artwork and animated video by Niklas Sundin.

The distinct cello parts for the track were recorded by Fox Skinner (Grand Magus) along with Dutch artist Lon Snow, and we also hear Swedish soprano Natalie Hernborg in the finale.
“Jordafärd” is taken from the upcoming album “Vanagandr” that will be released 27 August through Despotz Records.
“Döp dem i eld” is the first single from the upcoming fullength-album “Vanagandr“, scheduled for release 27 August through Despotz Records.
The scorching video was produced and directed by Patric Ullaeus for rEvolver, and features the talents of Fae Fire Group along with a somewhat surprising cast.

Dennis is now powered with custom pedals from the mighty Czarcie Kopyto!
“The first time I tried Czarcie Kopyto I was totally blown away. I had asked some drummers about them before who said that they are amazing. I never thought that a direct drive pedal could also be set in a heavier mode and this is the reason why I always played with chain drive and heavy wood beaters. The Czarcie Kopyto pedals is really for all styles and everybody can find the perfect settings. This is true craftsmanship and I’m honored to now be a Czarcie Kopyto artist!
