about
Mjölner is the name of at least 3 bands: 1) A Chilean Folk Black Metal/Ambient band. 2) A Swedish Viking Rock band 3) Swedish punk band In Norse mythology, Mjölner (literally, "That which crushes") is the Hammer of Thor, the god of lightning and thunder. 1) Mjölner was created in 1994 by Doomicus, in the need to express the musical ideas that, in certain form, did not continue exactly the musical esthetics of Bewitched (Circa Hibernum In Perpetuum). An unreleased single demo was recorded on 1994 (Faraway Winterlands) originally for Bewitched's Hibernum In Perpetuum as bonus track. In the winter of 1996 Doomicus and Ravn (Holocaust) they recorded in complete secret the album "Doomicus Trip", the which was realesed on tape (Limited to 100 copies) in November of 1996 by Winter records. Then, in 1997, Artaria records did the reprint of the album on tape again, but this time with full colour artworks and some differences in the original mix were made. That same year Artaria recs. wanted to publish the album on CD, but finally the label was in bankrupt due the label's bad promotion and the bad sales from another early Artaria bands. Mjölner recorded an mini album in 1999, entitled "The One Eyed God", but finally that disk never saw the light, and part of its tracks they were erased, kept and/or utilized in other productions where Doomicus participates. It was in 2004 when Nattasja and Tomhet joined Mjölner line-up and recorded "The Pagan Tribute", an album where is yielded homage
