about
1) FREJA are an atmospheric black metal duo hailing from the Netherlands, consisting of C. (Witte Wieven) and W. (Laster, Verval). The two found each other musically during the lead-up to Roadburn 2019 while working on the commissioned piece Maalstroom – a veritable “supergroup” of the ever-thriving Dutch black metal scene, including members from the esteemed likes of Fluisteraars, Turia, Terzij de Horde, Verwoed, and Grey Aura among others – and they decided to continue that creative energy with FREJA. To date they have released just one full-length album - Tides - in April 2022. https://freja.bandcamp.com 2) Influenced by the delicate, lush post-rock of their contemporaries (Sigur Rós, múm), Olóf Jorgunsson, Alexandír Bjornsson, Lilja Larsdóttir, and Per Helgeson are a quartet of Icelandic visionaries who met at university. Lilja's soft, wavering vocals range from fragile to operatic, with the boys often joining in between the orchestral hums and synthetic melodies. Freja's EP, We Laugh Indoors, was entirely instrumental and was released in late 2008. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
