As stated before, the Icelandic culture and Heritage is mostly based around 3 things. There is a long list of cultural traditions and folk traditionally make references to three major elements of the Icelandic nation: The landscape, the old literature and the old sagas. Folklores are intertwined in the heart if the nation. We have a lot of ghost stories that have lived from mouth to mouth for a long time on this harsh and dark Island.
The inspiration for Draugar / Ghost are real Icelandic ghost stories.
Mýrmann made the lyrics around 8 of those stories, the Stories are:
Galdramenn , Skupla, Haustgríma, Barðsgátt, Sjö draugar, Djöflalág, meiri mold and Draugaskip.
The album is a blend of various rock, Heavy metal and metal Styles. It has an underlying Dark and gloomy mood, yet with a lot of strong melodies and good harmonies. Guest artist Eva Lind Jóhannesdóttir as the scream of Sigríður Skupla.
