Sweden’s ELDKRAFT is a musical constellation whose primary foundation rests on epic metal while drawing experimental influences from ancestral musical traditions of the North and spiritual guidance of its hermetic crafts.Shaman, the debut album, is a psychedelic trip gazed upon through contemporary elements, circumnavigating journeys of knowledge, growth and the ecstasy of the soul.
Now ELDKRAFT have released the second single off their upcoming debut album Shaman! Surf over to the website of Rock Hard Germany HERE for the exclusive premiere of Gränslos Gräns!
Comments Poison Tongue founder/PRIMORDIAL singer A.A. Nemtheanga on his latest signing: „I was turned on to Eldkraft by Mortuus from Marduk and instantly recognised even it’s raw demo form here was something genuine, and it had the potential to be a massive pagan metal album. Not the cartoon stuff but the real deal, immersed in ancient shamanism and traditions with the spirit of Bathory somewhere deep in it’s bones…Eldkraft!”

ELDKRAFT’s debut album Shaman will be released the 24th /27th of May, 2013 in Europe via Metal Blade Records on CD and LP. The LP will be a gatefold double-LP with an exclusive bonus track entitled Shaman. To be sold for the price of a single-LP!
2011 was the year when J. Sandin and H. Karlsson chose to embark on a different path, having reached the end of the line with previous projects and bands. After hearing demo recordings, Metal Blade saw the potential of ELDKRAFT and expressed immediate interest.
With a record deal firmly in place, ELDKRAFT immortalised ten songs for their debut album in their own studio Epidemic, while N. Fjellström recorded the drums in studio Necromorbus. Mixing and mastering was completed under the watchful eye of Magnus Devo Andersson of Endarker Studio Sweden.
