The turning of the sun, changing of the seasons, the winter hibernation and spring rejuvenation of the bear, the heartbeat that sustains life from the first gasps out of the womb until our final breaths… so much of the natural world is cyclical, yet it’s easy to lose sight of this within the chaos and disarray of the modern world. Wardruna have returned after a four year slumber with their latest opus Birna — yet another masterclass in connecting past to present, but more importantly reforging the bond between humanity and nature that is so essential to the various crises we face today.
Using the she-bear as thematic guide, the Norwegian folk group take us on a journey with what is perhaps their most cohesive album to date — one that gathers all the best elements of Wardruna into a single, beautiful package. Wardruna – Birna Date Release at 24 Jan.
