I know that Windir have split-up since Valfar's death and I searched this topic around and it seems that it wasn't created till now and I think that it's missing here, the one's who have heared them should be agree with me; Windir gave us masterpieces like Sóknardarl, Arntor, 1184 and Likferd; in my opinion this band is really amazing the perfect mixture between Black and Viking metal , the riffs, the drums, the synth but specially the accordion and the voices are awesome, the first album that I heared was Arntor the best album they have done and maybe one of the best I've ever heared I think; Windir fans enjoy this forum...Heidra Valfar...

Hi guys, I bought a copy of this wonderful album from someone but I believe it's a counterfeit copy. I would like to know if someone who own this album could post come picture of the booklet to help me identify if it's a fake or a real copy.

Which album?

Windir was always great. Cor Scorpii is a triumph, too. I get chills from these very epic creations. The thick feelings of dark atmospheres and journeys beyond are what make much of metal so enjoyable for me.

By the way, 3 Windir studio albums autographed by members including Valfar are on sale on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/Signed-Windir-cds-/260622732679?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Music_CDs&hash=item3cae534d87 A little expensive for my taste. And it angers me a little because, whoever the seller is, they are pretty much trying to profit off Valfar's death...

Actually, you may not have a fake. I ordered a copy of 1184 from an official distribution site and it came with only the front and back pages of the art work. I contacted the distribution site and they contacted Head Not Found (Windir's label) and it sounds like a batch of CDs have been misprinted.

Windir is my favorite band of all time

I was hopeful when someone talked about Darkwoods My Betrothed but to my dismay they have nothing to do with Windir IMO... more like Dimmu Borgir/Old's Man Child...

Sadly no band I heard ever reached the sound and constructions of Valfar's work... even Cor Scorpii because they are more influenced by classical music. The best I found is Mistur... also classical oriented but with much more sad/epic feelings...ironically Stian Bakketeig is the lead guitar of both bands and is an ex-windir member

...After listening for thousands of times to WIndir, I wish I could have more from them. I'm to the point that I started studying their music in hope of one day being able to expand their discography. This task is tremendous but if no one is doing it I must try.
I started by doing cover versions (trance/instrumental) and now I'm working on a metal remix of Morkrets Fyrste (almost identical melody on two rifts but on different chords between rythm/synth and new melodies after) and this way I try to learn their theory of music. My two main problems are that I do not play any instruments (its all sampling and VST) and I cant scream like hell in my appartment. So If anyone can help achieve this crazy goal contact me please.

I listened to Windir a lot a few years back but I'm leaning more towards rawer stuff nowadays. There are some genious song writing on their albums though. I also listened to Cor Scorpii and Vreid but they never gave me the same feeling. Valfar was a unique artist.

Anyone got lyrics for Immortality (from Sogneriket demo)?


I know this post is really fucking old but here are the lyrics for those who still want them
We are not immortal
We must find the key
The key to your heaven
This key will bring us immortality

We are not immortal
Find the key to your heavens
This key will bring us
Immortality

We have always knew
That you guided us in fight
You have helped us through
Life as the knife
We have always knew
You guided us through fight
You have helped us through
Life as the knife

When we are worried
Our souls will go to heaven
There we will feel our immortality

When we are worried
Our souls will go to heaven
There we will feel our immortality

You might try the band Mistur featuring Strom on lead guitar if you haven't already. Probably the closest band to Windir of any of the bands featuring Windir's former members.

Both Mistur and Cor Scorpii were much better on demos. Full length albums were nothing special. Yeah, they weren't bad but not much more.

I second that! I really loved Cor Scorpii when I got in contact with them on myspace but when the album was released (the first one I don't know if they released anything after that) it wasn't at all what I expected! Vreid I really enjoyed though!

One of the greatest bands of all time. 1184 and Arntor in particular are masterpieces... from all the point of view you can evaluate... expecially (like I read a few of messages ago) the voice of Valfar and the synth.

One point at the rest of the band who after Valfar died has changed name in Vreid and has not continued with the original name. In this way Windir will be forever tied to those masterpieces.

Does anyone know if the mellow part of Ætti Mørkna, which begins after 5 minutes, is based on some other (folk?) song? I remember I once saw a program on tv, don't remember what, and there was a melody in the background which really reminded me of it.
