Reykjavik Goth Night: Mortiis, Almyrkvi & NYIÞ – Gaukurinn 16/11 2019
“Of all the Icelandic bands that work the dark arts, NYIÞ is probably the most elusive and mysterious.” – stranger-aeons.com
Great night at Gaukurinn! Had the photo shoot with Mortiis Ellefsen done in rain and storm (went well I think!), now some cool live and hanging out with the Misþyrming guys. Their guitarist Thomas and his girlfriend Anna (NYIÞ) were our guides and drivers to the photo locations. We could never have managed without them:) Also they gave me the Algleymi CD!
So except the Troll himself, I had the chance to see some really awesome Icelandic stuff. Some atmospheric black metal w Almyrkvi and then the weird and fantastic NYIÞ which are very hard to describe but they who try call it Ritual Dark ambient/dark folk/dark jazz. Never seen/heard anything like it. Love Iceland!GALLERIES: Mortiis / Almyrkvi / NYIÞ

MORTIIS Iceland November 2019
A weekend in Reykjavik for a MORTIIS photo shoot on friday and the Reykjavik Goth Night at Gaukurinn on Saturday.
The event was really cool, but more about that later when I can check the pics from the venue. Need to sort out pics from the shoot first.
We got some obstacles and restrictions (lights, weather, temperature etc etc xD), but we had the most awesome help from Tómas and Anna, who drove us around and assisted when needed:) So we worked with what we got and I think we did alright. What a fantastic country!!!

Chinese metal playlist
For no reason, really. And usually nothing I make a post of. Zuriaake is the only band in the list I know anything about and have only listened to a couple of songs, but might as well share it:) Found it here
