Ancient spirits awaken as French Nordic folk act SKÁLD extend an invitation into times long gone but not forgotten. Ørlǫg (out September 25, 2026) is their first album with Napalm Records, and it is our destiny. As the Norns weave our future, this album is a fascinating passageway into our pristine origins and the consequences of our choices. Ten songs as stepping stones, Ørlǫg is an offering to listen, to dwell, to reflect—and to find something within yourself previously unknown. SKÁLD don’t just play music, they awaken ancient ways. A staple band in the neofolk genre—recently proven by a Hellfest performance—SKÁLD deliver a work of art, deferentially using their sources to form the enchanting world of Ørlǫg. The language might sound unfamiliar, but the music still touches the soul.
