Notes:
Scandinavian Black Metal has been in dire need for
an injection of fresh blood during the last years.
Now RIMFROST are powerfully sticking it to this
scene with ice-cold needles. "Veraldar Nagli", which
translates as "Axis of the World" - meaning the
North Star, is unleashing an avalanche of frost-
bitten, melodic riffing. The Swedes from Boras are
organically fusing Black, Death and Thrash Metal
into a mighty sound of their own. RIMFROST
successfully merge the frost-bitten drive of early
IMMORTAL with the pounding groove and catchiness of
AMON AMARTH and the harsh attitude of SLAYER.
Despite this heavy name-dropping the duo has created
a sound of its own long since its founding and honed
it to sophistication in its eighth year of
existence.
RIMFROST start out in summer 2002, when 14 year old
singer and guitarist Hravn joins forces with drummer
Throllv of same age under the name M╓RKRETS FURSTAR
("Lords of Darkness") in the Swedish town Hagfors.
In October 2002 they record a first demo on a four-
channel MD4 and the result is self-titled to
"M÷rkrets Furstar" After playing primitive Black
Metal and exclusively using Swedish lyrics, the band
changes its name to RIMFROST and a more technical
style just one year later.
In these early years the members of the band are
still a bunch of school kids, but driven by a strong
will and burning desire to play Black Metal. Their
first demo under the name RIMFROST is recorded in
the year 2003 in the Hairy Bones Studios in
Karlstad. "Unredeemed Demons" features English
lyrics and is released in only ten copies although
the booklet states fifteen. Spending most of their
time in the rehearsal room Hravn and Throllv quickly
progress in their abilities as musicians and
songwriters. One year later the band is getting
serious. Joined by bassist Frozthirw they enter the
Black Lounge Studios in Avesta to recorded new demo
songs with producer Jonas Kjellgren and the declared
aim to acquire a record deal. These demo recordings
become known under the title "Winds of Hostility"
(2005), but are never published. There is immediate
interest, but the labels ask for another song.
RIMFROST return to Avesta and accordingly record "At
the Mighty Halls They'll Walk".
RIMFROST receive a good offer and the members being
young quickly sign a deal, which they come to regret
later. The signing includes one EP and two albums.
The Swedes release three of their demo songs as an
MCD in December 2005. "A Journey to a Greater End".
The first reactions are enthusiastic and RIMFROST
get chosen out of hundreds of contenders to perform
at the prestigious Inferno Festival in Oslo, Easter
2006. The Swedes' performance is greeted by fans and
press alike as one of the very coolest newcomers
this year and introduces them to an international
audience.
All seems bright, while RIMFROST prepare for their
debut album, but during the rehearsals Hravn and
Throllv decide to part ways with Frozthirw. As a new
bassist the duo recruits Beuwolf, who has already
performed with them as a live guitarist and shares
the other members' visions on musical expression and
professionalism of performance. During six days in
August 2006 RIMFROST return to the Black Lounge
Studios to produce their debut album with Jonas
Kjellgren once again. "A Frozen World Unknown" is
released on the 28th of October 28th the same year.
Although the album is received with critical
acclaim, dark clouds are now gathering on the
horizon. The band discovers that it has serious
disagreements with its label and Throllv moves from
Hagfors to Boras. The long distance between the
members as well as the search for a new label after
the band decides to quit their previous deal
effectively put all activities on hold.
In January 2008 Hravn follows Throllv to Boras and
RIMFROST is infused with new live. After extensive
rehearsals and writing new material the band signs a
new deal with Season of Mist out of several
interesting offers. After almost a year of
preparation it becomes clear that now Beuwolf lives
at too great a distance to continue playing in
RIMFROST. Both sides conclude with regrets to part
ways as friends for the time being, but Beuwolf
continues to assist the main duo in its song-writing
and will hopefully join the band again as a guest
musician in future.
Without a permanent bass-player in the band, Peter
Laustsen (Nox Aurea, ex-The Cold Existence) takes
over those duties as a session-member and plucks all
thick strings during the recording of "Veraldar
Nagli". RIMFROST's second album is brought to
perfection in Sonic Train Studios with renowned
producer Andy La Rocque (King Diamond) heading the
proceedings and assisted by Peter Laustsen as well
as the band. With the release of "Veraldar Nagli" on
November 16th, 2009 (January 12th, 2010 in the USA)
a new chapter will be opened by the Swedish
hopefuls. Now the band is ready to conquer the world
with Nordic wrath and will hopefully soon embark on
tours and festivals near you. Let this Black Metal
blizzard capture your soul!
