Swedish melodic death metallers HAVAMAL return with their powerful new single, “Hymns of the Fallen”, the third offering from their upcoming album Age of the Gods, due November 21st via Art Gates Records.
Watch “Hymns of the Fallen”:
With “Hymns of the Fallen”, HAVAMAL trade the battlefield’s fury for solemn remembrance. The song unfolds as a tribute to the fallen, warriors, loved ones, and all souls lost to time, yet never forgotten. Anchored in rhythmic grandeur and guided by melancholic strength, the track fuses ferocious melodic death metal with a haunting, anthemic atmosphere. The result is both mournful and majestic: mournful in tone, yet defiant in spirit.
Through sweeping harmonies, galloping riffs, and thunderous percussion, the band channels their unmistakable Viking identity into a moment of deep reverence. The vocals rise like a funeral pyre against storming guitars, evoking both loss and transcendence —
At its heart, “Hymns of the Fallen” transforms pain into purpose. It stands as both farewell and promise, a light to guide the departed through the eternal night, echoing the timeless Nordic belief that honor never dies.
