Background notes
Archive material and source history
Iskald formed in Norway in the late 1990s, with Torgeir Ryan as vocalist and primary songwriter. Their debut album 'Engangsgrill' came out in 1998, followed by 'The Highland Tapes' in 2001 and 'Sunken' in 2005. The band's lineup has included drummer Asgeir Mickelson, bassist Jan Tore Gjermundsen, and guitarist Arvid Thorsen.
Their songs like 'Dommedag' and 'Lokes Dans' represent the kind of black metal that emerged from Norway during that period. The music is abrasive and uncompromising, with lyrics that often touch on anti-religious and misanthropic themes.
Iskald's association with the Norwegian black metal scene placed them within a particular musical tradition, though their specific contributions to that tradition are what you hear on their recordings rather than something that needs grand claims attached.
