Traversing the Unknown

From the opening chords to the fading echoes, "Trolldom" guides listeners through an esoteric exploration of the unknown. Each track contributes to an intense experience inspired by dark mythology, complemented by the album's stunning artwork crafted by the multi-talented Ksenia Hinderson. The intricate designs draw from the depths of ancient folklore.


Rooted in Tradition, Forged in Time

Inspired by 70’s progressive rock, 80’s horror films, and the mid-90’s Black Metal, Troll's founding member, who was instrumental in shaping the best-selling genre of Black Metal, return to his roots on "Trolldom." Recorded at Evil Octopus Studio over the last decade, the album features the return of Nagash behind the drum kit, delivering an infernal frenzy. Guitarist Tlaloc showcases high-speed, intensive shredding and evocative leads, with bassist Sturt providing an entrancing backdrop to the relentless guitars and unnerving synth leads.


Trolldom: A Dark Enchantment

The word Trolldom does not have a perfect translation in English, you may say magic or witchcraft. The related word trolsk is maybe the word that most aptly describes the atmosphere in Trolls music. It is a word we use in Norwegian to describe dark bewitching moods you find in nature, in the twilight, before a thunderstorm or when the mist lays wispy and seeming to dance over a body of water. Times when you see shadows creep in the corner of your eye.

Lyrically, "Trolldom" implores listeners to confront the great dark truths of our universe, contemplating the ultimate destruction and impending death of all life as we know it.


Pioneers of Symphonic Black Metal

This release cements Troll's position as pioneers in the Symphonic Black Metal realm, inviting listeners to embrace the darkness and mystique offered by "Trolldom." The album is now available on all major music platforms, ensuring a global audience can partake in the occult journey crafted by Troll.
