With reddened blades, broken shields, shattered limbs and headless foes, THORR-AXE was formed to give praise to conflict and conquest; to revel in victory and remember the fallen. Contrived in 2007, THORR-AXE has been an immutable force of nature in heavy music, blending sludge, black metal, and traditional heavy metal to forge something that the Norse gods would endorse. The Bloomington, Indiana-based quartet released its 2011 debut album, Wall Of Spears, engineered by "Iron" Bob Fouts (Nachtmystium, Chrome Waves, ex-The Gates of Slumber et al). Four years later, THORR-AXE released its sophomore folow-up Gates of Winter, a heroic concept album in the vein of the Icelandic Sagas in its scope. In 2017, the band joined forces with Archarus to release "The Hobbit Split," a telling of J.R.R. Tolkien's timeless masterpiece in each of the band's doom-laden approaches. Bear witness as THORR-AXE leaves nothing in its wake.
