Tommy Brandt joined the band in the fall of 2001 to play the drums. He brought a new sound to the band and his groovy rock fitted perfectly with the older material from \u00c1smegin.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n\u00c1smegin is a band that strongly experiments with the Scandinavian folk music. While the band was still evolving they have worked together with many different artists such as Lars Fredrik Fr\u00f8islie and Lars Nedland. Instruments that were used were fiddle, Norwegian zither, flute and Jew&#8217;s harp. These instruments together create the personality and style of the band. The band had some line up changes in their past and more recently Lars Fredrik Fr\u00f8islie joined the band while recording their new CD. The new album \u201cArv\u201d took some years to finish and thus the CD contains older material as well as newer compositions. Guest musicians on this album are Anne Marie Hveding and Gunhild Hovden Kvangarsnes on vocals and Karolin Broosch on the violin.<\/p>\n<p>I like the mix of the folkloric music by the violin and the Hammond organ parts mixed with the sweeping metal riffs and grunts. While there is still place for melancholic melodies and clean vocals. The guest appearance of Anne Marie is not much after my liking, I do not like her voice although she does give a folk sounding atmosphere to the track. I must say, though, the ending of the track \u201cArv\u201d is outstanding. The grunts of Erik Fossan Rasmussen are great and sometimes, when this is combined with black metal reminds me of the Nordic Kampfar. The band knows how to create little breaks with pure folkloric sounds before it bursts out in some great grunts. The layering of the tracks are well arranged. \u201cGengangeren\u201d starts different with a piano intro and like other tracks, when you close your eyes, you can let your imagination go wild.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><strong>Tracklist:<\/strong><br \/>\n01 Fandens Maelkeb\u00f8tte<br \/>\n02 Hiertebrand<br \/>\n03 Generalen Og Troldharen<br \/>\n04 Arv<br \/>\n05 Yndifall<br \/>\n06 Gengangeren<br \/>\n07 Prunkende, Stolt I Jokumsol<br \/>\n08 En Myrmylne<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Links:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.asmegin.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u00c1smegin Official<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Releasedate: 28-11-2008; Label: Napalm Records By: Elvira Visser \u00c1smegin was founded in late 1998 as a Norwegian Viking metal band with the intention to merge traditional romanticism with heavy metal adding folkloric aspects.
