Helheim – 'Jormundgand' CD

Remastered reissue jewel case CD edition with 28 page booklet featuring new interview & rare photos.

To celebrate its 30th anniversary, DSR presents a special edition of Helheim’s classic debut album, 'Jormundgand'. Originally released in 1995, just one year after the band’s second demo, this eponymous debut immediately established Helheim as a formidable force in Norwegian Black Metal. The nearly eight-minute title track, “Jormundgand,” sets the tone with sharp, precise drumming, piercing guitars, intense musicianship, and powerful vocals. It remains a defining moment in Black Metal, capturing the band’s epic style, atmospheric depth, and Norse heritage. Yet it is the cohesion and consistent quality across the entire album that solidifies 'Jormundgand' as a legendary release, standing confidently on its own while nodding to influences from early Enslaved without ever feeling derivative. Recorded at the legendary Grieghallen Studio, the album reflects a time of awakening, rebellion, and Nordic coldness, offering an authentic and immersive experience that still resonates decades later. Even thirty years on, 'Jormundgand' retains its raw energy, epic atmosphere, and undiminished power, securing its place as a timeless classic in the Norwegian Black Metal canon.
