Asenblut

Asenblut is a German Pagan Metal band known for their robust blend of aggressive thrash metal and mythic, Viking-era themes. Formed in 2006 in Göttingen, Germany, the band quickly made their mark with a sound that harkens back to the traditional Scandinavian metal roots while incorporating melodic elements and historical storytelling into their music. With a name that translates to "blood of the Æsir," Asenblut draws heavily on Norse mythology and the heroic sagas of ancient warriors to create a fierce, battle-ready atmosphere within their compositions.

Their discography is a thunderous journey through tales of war, legends, and lore, with albums like "Berserker" (2016) and "Legenden" (2018) serving as testaments to their dedication to the craft. The 2020 release "Die wilde Jagd," which translates to "The Wild Hunt," continues this tradition, showcasing the band's evolution without straying from the raw energy that has become their signature. Asenblut has not only carved a niche within the Pagan Metal scene but also amongst metal enthusiasts who crave a fusion of historical depth and modern intensity. Each release, including singles like "Seite an Seite" and "Codex Gigas," further cements their standing as torchbearers of a genre that pays homage to a time when gods walked among men, and heroes were born from the whispers of the skalds.
