PRESS RELEASE:
Melodic- rock & metal project, combining elemets of Alternative- and ambient-metal, Shoegaze and a slight musical hint of melodic death- and black metal. Influenced by life, nature and the consciousness within. While musically and lyrically on the simple side, the songs are based on poems and aphorisms, about the intertwining connections of spiritualism (non-religious) and nature. The name is derived fromTolkien’s Sindarin script and can propably translated to “(dark) metal axe”. A contrast between the man-made world (axe, iron) and the nature- and spiritualism-focused lyrics. Dating back to the earlier years of the new millenium, GALVORNHATHOL turned from a more fantasy-focused and doom-laden sound, to a more straight forward but still rough and playful soundscape. The oldest song dates back to 2003 (the 'Lord Of The Rings' inspired "Path Of The Undead") and was a forerunner for the later, faster paced melodicism, while the more recent tracks starting from the ”H-Alpha” EP to “III” soften the edge, while keeping the basic spirit and the self-made lo-fi character alive.
After both (currently re-released as remastered & remixed versions) “I”, its nature-focused and “II“, the (personal) growth-focused predecessors, “III” comes to therms with the aforementioned subjects. Providing the closure to a journey from the earth to the stellar realm of space, the last part of this trilogy sums up our human condition and dares to provide a faint look into the future.
“III” concludes the trilogy that started with the conveniently titled “I”. A journey from the earth, to below the clouds and now to the stellar realm of stars and galaxies. Tinged with metaphors for the facetes of human life, encased in an interstellar poem of the matter, dark and light, all round us, that we call “nature”. Providing an uneducated guess of what or future might hold, providing we keep living our present, the listener might come to the conclusion that, while we are able to observe objects that are millions of lightyears away, we refrain from looking ahead into our own time to come. Whatever the future might hold; onwards. Ad Astra.
