About Me

Hraesvelg came to be in Autumn of 2006, from the ashes of Hraesvelg Ulverson's other solo project, Serenity Ablaze. Serenity Ablaze had more of an old school primitive black metal feel to it, and in time Ulverson's musical direction was headed to another place while still maintaining the "roots" of the black metal genre. Lyrically, Ulverson wanted to express the feelings he has about Asatru and the adoration he has for the old world, including Germanic, Norse, and Celtic cultures and lifestyles, as well as the downfall of our modern world as a whole. Hraesvelg is atmospheric and powerful. Hail to all who keep the faith of the Aesir and Vanir alive and burning strong. Hail Wotan! Myspace Layouts -

Lyrics to "Call of the Pale Wolf"

Too long I've been locked in this cage My leash is worn and frayed I've been starved off the land I once called home I'll break away to defend my own I roam across these plains, gun in my hand, blade ...
