Swedish folk metal unit Månegarm released their second single and new video "En snara av guld" today. The new song comes off their upcoming 10th album "Ynglingaättens Öde" ("the fate of the Ynglinga kin" in English), which is due out April 15, 2022 via Napalm Records.
The band explained the story behind the song saying, "'En snara av guld' is our newest single from the upcoming album and is one of the songs that we are most satisfied with. It's a grand, epic song that revolves around one simple but powerful melody; a melody that tells this gruesome story in a captivating way: the story about the Finnish daughter Skjalv who gets abducted and is forced to marry King Agne – the same man that killed her father. She finally gets her revenge on Agne and when the new day dawns, the King gets his final rest high up in the trees.”
“‘En snara av guld’ is the most gripping video we have ever made and we are so amazingly proud of how both the song and video came out. And a father’s heart couldn’t pound any stronger than today since the song features Erik’s youngest daughter, Lea, on vocals, and his other daughter, Tuva, plays Skjalv in the video," they added about the video.
"Ynglingaättens Öde" physical copies and bundles are now available for pre-order on the Napalm Records store.
