Forefather by Alex Vran

An epic Nordic synthwave–outrun saga that carries the listener into the world of the bravest warriors and shieldmaidens - a realm of ancient legends, forgotten gods, and untamed battles.

Through waves of thunderous drums, haunting chants, and shimmering neon echoes, Forefather awakens the lost age of heroes - the twilight of the gods, the dawn of Ragnarök.

Each track tells a fragment of myth reborn in sound: the cold breath of Fimbulvetr, the breaking of the bonds, the fire of Vigrid, and the voices of the Valkyries.

A journey through time and storm, where fate and fury intertwine and the spirit of the North rises once more.
