HAAVARD - Releases Debut Self-Titled Album

Norwegian dark Nordic folk act Haavard, the acoustic brainchild of mastermind and sole member Håvard Jørgensen (aka Lemarchand of early Ulver and Satyricon fame), has released the self-titled debut full-length via Auerbach Tonträger, a sub-label of Prophecy Productions. Haavard welcomes you in the player below.

Haavard comments: "This album has been a long time coming. I have had these songs in me for what seems like an aeon by now. It is hard to find words to describe accurately just how much it means to me to finally get this music out and into the world. As a personal recommendation, I'd like to suggest for you to put on a good pair of headphones and let this album be your soundtrack the next time that you hike or walk in nature".

Under the banner of Haavard, the Norwegian continues his unique artistic approach that unveils epic and sublime melodies, which are deeply rooted in his native land's folklore and romantic period composition and that are inherent in and an integral part of Nordic black metal. The guitarist respectfully removes all the harsh electronic fuzz and musical rage that generally drives this style. Through its acoustic and largely instrumental translation, Jørgensen lays bare the spectacular layers of cinematic beauty that hide underneath – and Norway's fjords and fjell become clearly visible again in his music.
