Forged in the frostbitten echoes of the past, Mjolne rises from the mists of time with their monumental debut album, “Through Veils of Time”.
Rooted deeply in the glorious era of late ’90s Norwegian black metal, this offering summons the same majestic and violent spirit that once carved names like Emperor, Satyricon, Dimmu Borgir, Dismal Euphony, and Mactatus into the obsidian stone of extreme music history.
Led by the former drummer of cult symphonic force Mactatus, Mjolne is more than a new name—it is a torchbearer of a forgotten grandeur, conjuring an age when black metal was both regal and ruthless.
With sweeping symphonic arrangements, grim melodies, and unrelenting percussive fury, Through Veils of Time stands as a portal to an era where time itself seems frozen in the eternal twilight of northern winters.
Nine tracks of soaring darkness and icy precision unfold like a forgotten grimoire—layered, dramatic, and drenched in atmosphere.
The production stays true to the essence of the late ‘90s—cold yet immersive, raw yet refined. Orchestrations rise like ancient mountains behind blastbeats and tremolo riffs, while grim vocals echo across the halls of old.
Mjolne do not merely revisit a sound. They revive a feeling—a majestic, powerful, and cinematic black metal vision that refuses to fade. This is not nostalgia. This is a reckoning.
