During the couple of years following the release of the impressive Revelations of the Red Sword, there was significant momentum around SVARTIDAUÐI. Shows across Europe followed the acclaimed release of that album… and then, after a while, it became clear that the band had been laid to rest. Would you care to share some insights regarding your state of mind at that time?
Þórir – We had gone through a whirlwind few years, life in the SVARTIDAUÐI camp was always quite chaotic and plenty of debauchery on the road which took its toll. We had been on an upward trajectory with some huge bookings on the horizon, and creatively we were full of ideas, but it was a double edged sword as it became harder and harder to make these ideas come to fruition given our hectic concert schedule. When Covid suddenly halted everything and wiped out all our bookings it gave us an opportunity for some reflection and introspection, we mutually agreed that we had been running on fumes for a while and that this was a fitting point to end the band. We were all extremely proud of our work on Revelations of the Red Sword and felt that it was a high note to end on, although we in turn decided to scrap about two albums worth of demos in various stages of completion. SVARTIDAUÐI was a unique and curious beast, we managed to capture a truly powerful essence but it was ultimately too volatile to tame.
