Iskald

ISKALD were formed in 2005 in Sortland, Northern Norway, by Simon Larsen and Aage Krekling, with the ambition of creating a distinctive form of melodic black metal deeply connected to the atmosphere of the Arctic north. After the self-released "Northern Twilight" EP, the band gained international attention with their debut album "Shades of Misery" (2007), establishing themselves as one of the most promising acts in the Norwegian scene.

Throughout their career, ISKALD have developed a sound where cold melodies, aggression and atmospheric depth coexist, drawing inspiration from nature, Norse heritage and existential themes. Their discography includes acclaimed albums such as "Revelations of Reckoning Day" (2008), "The Sun I Carried Alone" (2011), "Nedom og Nord" (2014) and "Innhøstinga" (2018), each marking a further evolution of their artistic vision.

Having performed at festivals including Inferno Festival, Midgardsblot, Hove Festival and by:Larm, and shared stages with major names in extreme metal, ISKALD now enter a new phase with Dusktone. The partnership leads to the release of "Curse of the Mind", their sixth full-length album and first concept record, arriving in 2026.
