ORSOK

Vinyl LP pressing. 2020 release. From the depth of Reykjavik in Iceland emerges Nyrst with its blackened creation Ors?k, an album that pays homage to the band's grim and icy Icelandic heritage. With Ors?k, Nyrst, which means "northernmost" in Icelandic, holds true to its name by delivering a debut album filled with a soundscape that is incredibly cold, stark and barren, whilst the lyrics come straight from old horror literature and are laced with cosmic undertones. Formed in the winter of 2013, Nyrst released their first demo in 2016. The demo garnered praise for the bandAEs use of diverse vocals and chilling atmosphere, whilst NyrstAEs mystical and haunting stage performances have gained them respect as a live band in the metal scene of their native Iceland. TodayAEs lineup of Sn'bj?rn on vocals, guitarists Eysteinn and DavY?, Egill on bass and Sveinbj?rn on drums.'
