Nordic folk and Ambient project NYTT LAND from Russia has signed an official worldwide contract with Austrian rock and metal label Napalm Records!
The band’s style has been compared to Wardruna with added traditional throat singing and handmade traditional instruments such as the kravik-lyra and the tagelharpa. The band is inspired by the sounds of Siberian nature, and records have included live field-recordings of raven calls and forest sounds. Thematically, their work echoes many stories from Norse mythology and historic texts such as the Poetic Edda. In keeping with this tradition, much of NYTT LAND’s lyrics are written in and sung in the Old Norse language.
