WARDRUNA SHARE “ODAL” THE BRAND NEW SONG FROM THEIR THIRD INSTALMENT OF THE RUNALJOD TRILOGY – RUNALJOD RAGNAROK, PRE-ORDERS NOW LIVE

 

  So excited to unveil “Odal” from Wardruna´s upcoming album Runaljod – Ragnarok set to be released 21 October through By Norse Music.
  This release is the third instalment in a trilogy of albums that began with Runaljod – gap var Ginnunga (2009) and continued with Runaljod – Yggdrasil (2013). The song itself features special appearances from Einar’s own children.
  Einar Selvik comments on the song…“Odal” represent such things as family, heritage, birthright and allodial right but also inheritance in broader and more metaphorical sense. Serious and reflected poetry melting together with the sound of a child’s voice is for me a very strong expression in itself. And with thematic like this as a starting point, it is safe to say that doing this song together with my own two children made it very emotionally charged for me, which I can only hope is something reflected clearly in the end result.”
