Name: KHORS "Asgard's Shining" from "Return To Abandoned" by Svarga Music
Duration: 6 min 18 s
Description: KHORS offer epic and melodic compositions, powerful and swirling, combined with acoustic moments of intense atmosphere – just suited for Slavonic and/or pagan spirits, who savour KRODA, ZGARD, ENSLAVED and of course NOKTURNAL MORTUM. Their fourth album, “Return to Abandoned” re-released in 2017 by Svarga Music. It comes in a 6-panel digipak with new artwork.

KHORS’ third album “Mysticism”, which was originally released in 2008, already achieved a cult status in metal underground. This is proved by a number of already sold out re-issues of this album, including the last one in LP format by Osmose Productions. Now this great album is re-released by Svarga Music in noble 6-panel digipak format with 3 bonus tracks and completely new artwork.

"KHORS are something of a supergroup, featuring past and present members of Astrofaes and Hate Forest among others. "Mysticism" offers plenty of meat to the veteran while also acting as a sound starting point for virgin of the ex-Soviet Bloc's grim delights." - Terrorizer (UK)

"As an outfit Khors share much with their compatriots and comparisons can quickly be made with Astrofaes (unsurprisingly), Nokturnal Mortum, Drudkh and Hate Forest, an ex-member of whom, Khaoth, drums here." - Metal Hammer (UK)

TWILIGHTFALL 2014 "The Energy Of Soul"

STRYVIGOR's debut album is inspired by their native Ukrainian landscape - the windswept Carpathians, wintry woods, and especially the mountain river from which the trio take their name. Underpinned by expertly mixed cosmic synths, the passion and sincerity behind STRYVIGOR's nature-worshiping craft incites awe and wonder, pride and heroism. Recommended for fans of DRUDKH, ASTROFAES, and KHORS.

With their 2nd album THUNDERKRAFT went in a more experimental direction, combining the classical styles of Death and Black Metal with electronic music, folklore, epic and symphonic elements. This wild combination of styles plus live-recorded violin, flute and saxophone make the sound of the band truly unique. The lyrics are written in Ukrainian, Russian and German and explore problems of mankind's relation to the past and ideas of boundless possibilities of the human spirit. Cosmology concepts are also represented, albeit leaning toward the social aspects.
