Audio Mixer: Jacob Hansen.
Recording information: Kris-Stuff Studio.
Arranger: Heri Joensen.
Tyr is a Viking metal outfit from the Faroe Islands--an autonomous region between Norway and Iceland that has been an independent territory of the kingdom of Denmark since 1948. Tyr relies heavily on the folk tradition of their region. Scandinavian lyrical and melodic themes are fused neatly and seamlessly with pagan and Viking metal; BY THE LIGHT OF THE NORTHERN STAR employs these elements in accessible but utterly heavy ways. Along with the recognizable chants and collective melodic tropes are shredding guitar solos, blastbeats, marching tempos, and power riffs. Sung in both English and Faroese, the nine cuts on the album span the range of Norse mythology and mysticism for their inspiration.
