Recurring Pattern

I’m alone with my thoughts
Don’t know if I should give up or go on
Again, this fear that I won’t
Stand up against myself to hold on.

Fuck this depression!
Get me out
This recurring pattern
No escape
My mind is a prison.
Locked in a mental cage
In a regression
I’m gonna break
Hatefully mental
Turns to rage
Full of aggression
The darkness that is in me, voices that never leave.

Won’t let them see, this pain this agony
Always feeling down, hiding it behind a smile
Master of disguise, never a tear in my eyes
It never sleeps, internal beast unleashed

Sometimes I stand there with a blade,
Force myself to not cut my veins
Like demons take control of my brain
If I lose this battle I hope it won’t be in vain

Tracks uploaded here are mostly unfinished since I can't do vocals/lyrics.  So if there are any vocalists/songwriters out there that want to work on anything let me know.  I would also be interested in joining/forming a band, if anyone needs a guitarist that does whatever it is that I do.

everything is a work in progress

i make music because silence got boring.
Metal and whatever else makes noise.
 No rules, no scene.
It’s all self made, self mixed, and barely held together with duct tape and spit
enjoy

LORRIDI is a Folk/Viking Power Metal one-man band by Jan Magne Garte. Taking inspiration from the sagas of the viking age and norse mythology, Garte creates vivid images of the old gods and warriors through his music and lyrics.

Born in Norway, 1971. At the age of 16, Jan Magne Garte played bass in different bands starting in the mid '80s. Growing in popularity and opening for some of the most popular Norwegian Rock bands at the time. By the early 2000s, Garte started expanding his repertoire by singing songs himself and switching from bass to guitar.

Around the same time his parental duties would start to take the focus from the music, and his career as a musician   took a hiatus for almost two decades. Now after all this time, his love for making music has truly rekindled and the old musician has returned. 

All of his music is heavly influenced by the songs of his youth, from genres such as '80s hard rock, heavy metal, thrash, but also taking notes from the next generation of musicians.

Garte also has another solo project under his own name. 
All tracks were composed, arranged, recorded and mastered by Garte himself.
