Hrafnafjǫrðr — Blóð ok Bræðralag

“Blóð ok bræðralag” (“Blood and Brotherhood”) is a shield-wall anthem from Hrafnafjǫrðr, forged from firelit fjords, broken shields, and vows that outlive the men who swore them.
Blending hard viking rock, cinematic weight, and ritual chanting, the song circles around one idea: when everything else collapses, only blood and brotherhood hold the line. English verses paint the scene under northern lights — scars, oaths, crashing waves, and men lifting each other back to their feet — while the chorus rises in Old Norse, like a war-prayer for those who choose to stand shoulder to shoulder in the dark.

Choirs, chants, and grinding guitars move like a living shield wall: heavy, slow, and impossible to push back. This isn’t about glory for one hero, but about the nameless many who lock shields and refuse to break.
This is not folk nostalgia.
This is shield-wall war music — raw, epic, and unpolished — for those who still feel iron resolve when someone shouts “Skjǫldr við skjǫld!” in the night.

Blóð ok Bræðralag - Official Lyrics:

Under northern lights by the silent fjord,
we stand as one around a burning core
Old oaths spoken in the storm’s cold breath,
blood-bound brothers, sworn past death
Ash and ember on our skin,
iron edges, weathered grin
Every scar a story told,
every promise carved in gold

When the darkness rises all around,
only the strength we share will stand its ground

Blóð ok bræðralag
veggʀ er vér eigi svíkjum
skjǫldr við skjǫld í kalda nótt
undir norðrljósum glíkjum

Blóð ok bræðralag
í stormi ok stáli brennr
vér stöndum sem einn í hring
æra ok eiðr í oss menn

Through the fights we’ve carried every mark,
lost and won in flame and dark
White waves crash against the stone,
still we hold this line alone
Names are echoed on the wind,
friends we lost and blood we sinned
Yet our hands refuse to shake,
we will not be first to break

When the storm would drive us to our knees,
we raise each other up and face the freeze

Blóð ok bræðralag
veggʀ er vér eigi svíkjum
skjǫldr við skjǫld í kalda nótt
undir norðrljósum glíkjum

Blóð ok bræðralag
í stormi ok stáli brennr
vér stöndum sem einn í hring
æra ok eiðr í oss menn

I feel the weight of blood and vow,
a heavy chain across my brow
But still this fire inside my chest
refuses cold, refuses rest
If all we are is ash and bone,
then let it fall on shield and stone
Let every step and every scar
prove we stood for who we are

SHIELD!
WALL!
Blood and brotherhood above all!

SHIELD!
WALL!
Brothers in the raging squall!

Blóð ok bræðralag
veggʀ er vér eigi svíkjum
skjǫldr við skjǫld í eld ok nótt
undir norðrljósum glíkjum

Blóð ok bræðralag
í stormi ok stáli brennr
vér bindum örlǫg í hring
æra ok eiðr í oss menn

And the fjord answers, faint and low,
like a memory of vows we swore
In the hush when flames grow thin,
we feel the oaths still burn within
