Ep. 266: Einar Selvik of Wardruna

Keith sits down with Einar Selvik to discuss growing up in Osterøy, Norway, early music influences and becoming obsessed with the drums at an early age, joining Gorgoroth on drums and recording their 2003 LP "Twilight of the Idols", while carrying future visions of what would become his future project Wardruna. We also discuss the history of Wardruna, the earliest recordings which date back to 2002, how Einar committed himself fully to his vision and developed the project over the years, the making of Wardruna's latest LP "Birna" and the themes behind the record, collaborating with Aurora, providing the soundtrack for "Vikings", what's next for Wardruna and more.
