Joensen comments, “‘Axes’ starts with a battle horn followed by a fast melodic and symphonic guitar riff introducing the progression and main theme of the song. Game Of Thrones-ish lyrics of gory and glorified hand-to-hand battle of Viking times, told from a first-person perspective. The verse is slow and heavy with a gritty, yet theatrical and melodic voice. The chorus is fast with a singalong choir, alternating vocally between intricate and brutally simple phrasings. It’s a short face-melting metal song based on a single melodic idea.”
When Týr teamed up with the Symphony Orchestra of the Faroe Islands on February 8th, 2020, to record the double-disc/DVD release A Night At The Nordic House, founding frontman Heri Joensen was thrilled to bring together two of the music forms he loves most - folk and classical - into his band’s unorthodox form of music. But at the time, he couldn’t have imagined what a profound impact the collaboration would have on his musical vision, and how much it would influence and inform the album he would write a few years later.
“There’s a reason classical music is called classical,” Joensen says. “It's the classical way of doing it. And it creates these epic sounds that fit in perfectly with the kind of metal we do in TÝR. So, there’s full orchestration on all of the new songs.”
"Battle Ballads" features the stunning artwork of by Gyula Havancsak.
"Axes" lyrics & credits:
music: Gunnar Thomsen & Heri Joensen
lyrics: Heri Joensen & Tadeusz Rieckmann
Thus the battlehorn rang out into the dawn
Forge ahead towards a wall of weapons drawn
Soon your screams of pain will sound across the sky
Rage embraces me
With axes raised I
Run right into the fray
My bloodlust blind
Born and bred as a savage slayer
Bellowing in the gory grind
Wielding tools of heathen judgment
Vengeance is my sole concern
Ancient gods of the grave begrudge me
Drenched in guts as you bleed and burn
Lo, a spear in nimble hands impales my side
Joke’s on you, I split your skull, to Hel you ride
Downed I wipe your blood and brains from out my eye
Rising to my feet
Oh Týr be praised I
Run back into the fray
My bloodlust blind
Born and bred as a savage slayer
Bellowing in the gory grind
Wielding tools of heathen judgment
Vengeance is my sole concern
Ancient gods of the grave begrudge me
Drenched in guts as you bleed and burn
Axes raised I
Run right into the fray
My bloodlust blind
Born and bred as a savage slayer
Bellowing in the gory grind
Wielding tools of heathen judgment
Vengeance is my sole concern
Ancient gods of the grave begrudge me
Drenched in guts as you bleed and burn
Love this band. They produce a unique and authentic style of metal worthy of the Gods to hear.

I discovered TYR with Sinklars Vísa. It was the time when we went on myspace a lot, I had exchanged quite a bit with the drummer.

He must've really loved that band shirt.
I sure did!
@@drummertad5749 I actually loved the video. It took me way back to Hail to the Hammer with Pól.
I'm so glad Týr's back to making new music. Fingers crossed for a gig in Finland!

Вот хорошая музыка и песня без всякого бреда
Давно в Москве не были . Мир изменится , и я надеюсь ещё услышу вас прежде чем Один заберёт меня .
Сейчас там, наверное, только шаман выступает)))
А в Москве вообще кто-нибудь был после 2022?😏
Tyr Us The Lawful Good Paladin Gaurdian If The Gates To Valhalla. His Left Hand Was Bit Off By The Fanis Wolf So Much For Flight If The Valcaries Tyr. My Condolences. Didn't Fear The Lightning. Fear What Comes After That. Thunder Rolls Thor Never Ducks Around Find Out EDDIE Outta Here.
You should try doing an animated video one day
Tad Rieckmann is my hero
Great video, I still believe that Gunnar could have taken Tad on. He must have ate a bad Turkey leg.
Bro at 2:13 forgot where the dodge button was lol
Героизм толпы исчезает, когда за свои действия приходится отвечать персонально.
Only 7 songs in English. After 5 years. Sad.
The music is excellent, but the video? Only Asterix and Obelix were missing.
Good track but I feel the lyrics get drowned out by the music a little bit here, possibly a mixing matter but the strong drums especially cause the lyrics to be little harder to follow than usual for Tyr in my experience.
😂😂😂😂
