Grimner is a Swedish folk metal band that has been making waves in the metal scene with their unique blend of melodic and powerful music, deeply rooted in the folklore and myths of their Norse heritage. Formed in 2008 in the small town of Motala, Grimner combines traditional Scandinavian instruments such as flutes, mandolas, and bagpipes with the heavy riffs and thunderous percussion characteristic of metal. Over the years, they have earned a reputation for their captivating storytelling through lyrics written in both Swedish and English, exploring themes from Norse mythology and Viking history.

Their discography has significantly expanded over the years, with recent releases like "Urfader," "Ur Vågorna," and "Hämtad av Valkyrior" showcasing their growth and consistent commitment to their craft. The band's 2018 album "Vanadrottning" is a notable high point, featuring the assertive anthem "Fafnersbane" and the evocative "En Fallen Jätte", both highlighting the group's ability to invoke the ancient spirit of the North. Grimner's steady output, culminating in the stirring track "Freja Vakar," continues to solidify their standing in the global metal community as they breathe new life into the storied traditions of their ancestors, marrying them with the intensity of modern metal music.
