They're essentially modern-day skalds.Discography: Runaljod – Gap Var Ginnunga (2009) Runaljod – Yggdrasil (2013) Runaljod – Ragnarok (2016) Skald (2018) Kvitravn (2021)They haven't gone unnoticed among creators of modern fiction set in The Viking Age, as they participated to the soundtracks of the likes of Vikings and Assassin's Creed: Valhalla.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Does Not Like Shoes: Einar Selvik often walks barefoot in their music videos filmed in Norway's nature.

comment
The End of the World as We Know It: Runaljod – Ragnarok means to convey the atmosphere following the Ragnarök, the end of the Norse gods and the world in an epic battle from which everything will be reborn. That latter "rebirth" aspect is given way more focus in it than the epic battles or destructions.

Divine Birds: "Kvitravn" (from the eponymous album) is a call to invoke a white raven spirit (ravens are associated with Odin in Norse myths). It's also the Stage Name Einar Selvik uses, and the motif is reprised in his songs for Assassin's Creed: Valhalla.

Everything Is an Instrument: They frequently make use of non-traditional instruments and other sources of sound like trees, rocks, water, torches and even ice (in the song "Isa" from Runaljod – Ragnarok for the latter, if you ask).
