Reykjavik Goth Night: Mortiis, Almyrkvi & NYIÞ – Gaukurinn 16/11 2019
“Of all the Icelandic bands that work the dark arts, NYIÞ is probably the most elusive and mysterious.” – stranger-aeons.com
Great night at Gaukurinn! Had the photo shoot with Mortiis Ellefsen done in rain and storm (went well I think!), now some cool live and hanging out with the Misþyrming guys. Their guitarist Thomas and Anna (NYIÞ) were our guides and drivers to the photo locations. We could never have managed without them:) Also they gave me the Algleymi CD!
So except the Troll himself, I had the chance to see some really awesome Icelandic stuff. Some atmospheric black metal w Almyrkvi and then the weird and fantastic NYIÞ which are very hard to describe but they who try call it Ritual Dark ambient/dark folk/dark jazz. Never seen/heard anything like it. Love Iceland!GALLERIES: Mortiis / Almyrkvi / NYIÞ

MORTIIS Iceland November 2019 [The Works]
A weekend in Reykjavik with Håvard E. for a MORTIIS photo shoot on friday and the Reykjavik Goth Night at Gaukurinn on Saturday.
We got some obstacles and restrictions (lights, weather, temperature etc etc xD), but we had the most awesome help from Tómas (Misþyrming) and Anna (NYIÞ), who drove us around and assisted when needed:) (They are also featured in my Icelandic saga The Troll:))). We worked with what we got and I think we did alright. What a fantastic country, though!!!
The night before the shoot was stormy with downpour ( couldn´t go outside on the terrace for a smoke because I was afraid that the winds would rip the door right off xD ) and that continued in the morning when our friends came to pick us up. So we made the decision to start with the cave pictures. Great with shelter when it was raining. Just that the cave floor was covered in some mud that was behaving in different ways. Either it was very slippery or just got you glued to the ground. Also it was constantly dripping ice cold water from above. Very interesting.
Luckily the raining slowed down a bit in awhile so we stayed at the cave but got some nice pics right outside. I´m not at all sure where we were at but it looked a bit like Mariuhellar when sorting out the pictures. Not too far from Reykjavik.
Next stop was (need to check the name of the location) a bit further out from town. Stunning views along the way , took some pics on a beach with mountains all around it and ended up somewhere with hot mud pools and steaming activity.
We drove around all over the place, stopped here and there for some (quick) pictures. Like at the lava fields. Absolutely amazing!! Always quick because Håvard/Mortiis outfit wasn´t really made for the brutal cold and harsh conditions that Iceland offers in November. Whatever ideas and experiments we had in mind, we had to skip. A couple of minutes of straight up shooting and then Håvard had to get some time to warm up in the car. Blue was not his best skin tone so we needed to keep him at least slightly normal coloured. It was really, really cold even when you were properly dressed:/

For no reason, really. And usually nothing I make a post of. Zuriaake is the only band in the list I know anything about and have only listened to a couple of songs, but might as well share it:) Found it here

“Emerging from the darkness of the Swedish death metal abyss in 2004, the band immediately stood apart from what was already a crowded scene, betraying an uncompromising vision that refused to be shackled by any genre stereotypes.”
