Biography

Sunderland / Nottingham, UK (2005 – present)

Wodensthrone was formed in Winterfylleð of 2005, in the Sundered Lands of North Eastern England, by founding members Brunwulf, Wildeþrýð, Gerádwine, and Hréowsian.

In these formative days, the clan’s sound was raw and primitive, but still hinted at a sense of sorrow, with lyrics focusing on the darker aspects of England’s history.

However, by Eostremonað of 2006, the clan’s music had developed both technically and melodically, and so Æðelwalh was recruited on synths. It was at this point that Wodensthrone truly began to resemble their current incarnation, growing both musically and conceptually.

After a number of live assaults, the clan self-recorded the song ’A Tribute To Our Glorious Dead’ on a 16-track, and thus the split 7” with fellow kinsmen Niroth was born. The clan also entered the studio to record 2 more songs, ’Scinlaeca’ and ’These Isolated Lands’ which would eventually emerge on the ’Over The Binding Of The Waves’ split CD with Folkvang (Belarus) on Ancient Nation records.

However, the clan still felt incomplete, and so comrade Eldbeorn joined the clan on guitar in the Blotmonað of 2006, completing the line-up and adding further depths of melody and savagery to the clan’s sound.

At the dawn of 2007, despite being hindered by personal circumstances, the clan re-entered the studio to record ’The Scouring’ and to put the finishing touches to their material for the split with Folkvang.

In Ðrimilcemonað of 2007 the clan were greatly honoured to appear live alongside Negura Bunget and Fen in the Sundered Lands; one of the defining moment’s in the band’s history. Later that month the clan also confirmed their alliance with Bindrune Recordings, and began focusing on their debut full length.

    don't like a lot of the "related artists" but Curse is one of the best black metal albums of the past few years. apppreeeessh

    Can't even go anywhere on the net without someone sparking up a gay marriage debate. If you're against gay marriage as a male then it's obvious that you think dicks are secretly delicious.

    "Wodensthrone are non-political and AND AGAINST RACISM, DISCRIMINATION" so they ARE political. I guess dragonbottles likes this band because they are GLBT friendly. [2]

    Great band, incredibly melancholy atmosphere, and they're not afraid to have a soft, classy solo in there either.

    What I meant by that is that they have no strong political ties and won't discriminate against any of their fans. But yeah, in all honesty, that's a nice thing for me.

    Finally got around to listening to this band. Now the only thing I'm thinking is "why didn't I listen to them earlier?!"
