![]() I always try to improve my songwriting skills, as I’m sure the other band members also to, so progress is what we want to see and what we aim for. HJ: Thanks, I’m very glad you like the songs. Was this something you were aiming for or do you just let things flow naturally? – On the other hand, on «Valkyrja» we can find some of your catchiest and grooviest songs to date. And I like to think we got a bit better at that too. I think all bands like us try to get a thick and heavy sound, and it’s smart to keep that in mind also while writing the music. HJ: I think it’s a mix between Jacob’s ever advancing mixing abilities, and our songwriting. Was this something you were striving for or does it have anything to do with the mixing/production process you had? – After giving the record some spins I could say most tracks have adopted a really heavy and thick sound. Because I find metal that’s only inspired by other metal is a bit dull. I try to avoid being inspired by, or rather stealing from, other metal. Personal experience, international news, fiction, mythology, poetry. – And where do you take inspiration from to create your lyrics? It may even apply to things not related to relationships. Having something and realising that you actually want something different, and then going for it. HJ: I think the relationship issues most people will be able to identify with. – I guess you may be tired of answering to what’s the concept behind this album so, instead of asking you that, as anyone can find the info on the Internet, I would like you to tell us how does this mythological concept applies to real life. ![]() If things keep up like this it will be a big step forwards for us, and of course that’s what we hope and wish for. HJ: The feedback has been the best we’ve ever experienced, by far. What are your expectations on this new effort? And how is its feedback being son far? – You have just released your latest album, entitled «Valkyrja». HJ: Things look really good actually, on all fronts at the same time, which is a first for us. ![]() ![]() How is everything going into the TÝR’s camp right now? – Hello, lots of thanks for answering our interview. ![]()
