Zool came out of Norway in 1997 with a self-titled debut album. Their sound was raw and heavy, drawing on Nordic themes. The band's lineup included Thorbjørn Harr on vocals, Tor Erik Rasmussen on guitar, Eivind Hvistendahl on bass, and Kristian Hollund on drums.
Their song 'Balder (Son of Odin)' became a notable track, referencing Norse mythology. Zool kept making albums like 'Enchanting the Serpent' in 1999 and 'Magnus Dominus' in 2001.
They released several more records, including 'Paradise Belongs to Us' in 2004 and 'The Sorcerer's Circle' in 2008. Later albums like 'Storm of the North' and 'The Heathen's Curse' continued in a similar vein. Other songs in their catalog include 'Burning Ice,' 'Cross of Greed,' and 'Throne of Thor.'
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
