Greetings Bards

I have already posted one tune this season. However, it was the last for our third album, so I wonder if collecting already finished tracks for an album is “doing something” too? I will take the chance and release it in this thread instead of a seperate one because I like the company and appreciation here. Hope it is okay with you.
So it came to pass that Tribe Of Hofund released our third album since 2022, Vanir Wars. There are enough albums now to speak of traditions. One is that you will always find at least one tune in 5/4, one in 6/4 and one in 7/4 on the albums preserving the art of odd and compound meters. Often you will find more.
Another is that all the drama always has a happy end. The first album, Dawn over Folkvang, ended with a wonderful dance by Freja. The second album, Underworld Whispers, ended with Odin experiencing the grace of the surface light when he returned from his journey to the underworld, learning about Ragnarok and his own death. In Vanir Wars, we shall witness the happy return of the ships once the war between Aesir and Vanir is over.
The right chronology of tunes is as follows:
- Rise of the Vanir
- Call of Vanaheimr
- Gullveig’s Three Resurrections
- The Firedawn March
- Berserker Trance
- The Siege
- The Treaty
- Return of The Ships
Pagan Folky like hell, cannot help it, not for everyone I know. I was completely enthralled by Mike Oldfield when I was kid. But I hope you will enjoy the ride if you take it.
Kindly
Gothi
