Interviews About Albums: MYRHOLT - Blandede Meninger Og Aforismer (2024)

In this new interview, we sat down with the Norwegian Black Metal band MYRHOLT to ask questions about their album, "Blandede Meninger Og Aforismer".

1. What can you say about "Blandede meninger og aforismer"?

’’Blandede meninger og aforismer’’ is all about regressing and taking a giant step backward. It’s about looking to the future with the eyes of the past. ’’Mindre av alt, mer av ingenting!’’

2. What is the meaning of the album name?

It’s the Norwegian translation of ’’Vermischte Meinungen und Sprüche‘‘ or ‘‘Assorted Opinions and Maxims’’ for English readers. With nods to Nietzsche.

3. Which one is the composer of the "Blandede meninger og aforismer"?

That would be me. Since I’m the only one in this project.

4. If you had to pick one song, which one would you pick?

Probably ’’La oss tale om katarsis; om lidelse og sorti’’.

5. Is there a special message in "Blandede meninger og aforismer"? If there is what it is?

It’s complex but the main message is to avoid organized religion and to get closer to nature.

Listen to the woods and the mountains. Cherish fertile soil. Respect life.

6. Are there some lyrics that you'd love to share?

All lyrics will be available in the physical versions and on assorted streaming platforms.

7. Which inspirations have been important for this album? Like musically or friends, family, someone you'd love to thank especially?

Life and nature are always the main inspirations in my art. The inspiration for living is family.

So if anyone deserves a thank you it’s the love of my life, Tanja.

8. Something to add?

Stop. Think. Question. And regress. ’’Mindre av alt, mer av ingenting!’’
