Hiidenhauta, who plays folk-influenced black metal, has released his third studio album through Inverse Records. Hiidenhauda's third album, “Riivin”, is most easily compartmentalized in folk-influenced black metal, but above all it is a balanced ensemble of Finnish devil that exudes the band's ability to regenerate and transform. Once again, Hiidenhauta is like a story he created: earthy, raw, angry, but also sounding like the endless beauty of nature.

Isengard was the solo-project initially started in 1989 by Fenriz – one the key driving forces behind Norwegian legends Darkthrone – because he had many musical ideas to explore that didn’t strictly fit in with the style and music of his main band. Under the Isengard moniker, Fenriz released 2 albums encapsulating doom, death, black & Folk/Viking metal in the shape of ‘Vinterskugge‘ & ‘Høstmørke‘, & finally we welcome the third addition to this cult project. Everything on ‘Vårjevndøgn’ was performed and engineered by Fenriz himself. The tracks were all recorded between 1989 & 1993 using the infamous Necrohell Studios, notable for recording Darkthrone’s classic ‘Transilvanian Hunger’ & ‘Panzerfaust’ albums. ‘Vårjevndøgn’ was mastered by Jack control at Enormous Door.
