Nordheim is a Canadian band hailing from Quebec that has been carving out their own niche in the metal scene with a fresh blend of folk and melodic death metal, which they refer to with a tongue-in-cheek attitude as "Beer Metal." The band was founded in 2006 and has gained a reputation for blending the ferocity of metal with the jovial narrative elements of folk music, all while maintaining an undeniably epic scale in their sound and storytelling. Their lyrics often explore themes of war, alcohol, and fantasy worlds, resonating with fans who appreciate a mix of humor with serious musicianship.

Their 2017 release "Rapthor" continued to see Nordheim deliver on their brand of raucous and spirited metal, garnering attention for its thematic focus on dinosaurs and barbaric fun, all mixed into an intoxicating potion of head-banging riffs and singalong choruses. Preceding this, "Refill" dropped in 2013, and served as a strong follow-up to their 2010 debut, "Lost in the North," further crystallizing their characteristic style. Despite the jovial nature of their music, Nordheim has proven their ability to craft complex arrangements and memorable melodies that strike a chord with audiences across the metal community, securing their place as one of the Canadian underground metal scene's treasured acts. Their energetic live performances and the tangible chemistry among the band members make Nordheim a standout act committed to delivering a potent and entertaining musical experience.
