KVEN marks the debut of Hulkoff as a "solo" artist. Having spent decades writing and performing in band constellations (a decade of success as the songwriter/frontman of gold selling Swedish chart-topper Raubtier), it was high time to realize this idea. The album is mixed and mastered at the Black Lounge by sound maestro extra-ordinaire Jonas Kjellgren. "I have thought about this album for a very long time" Hulkoff says, "and to finally let it see the dawn is nothing short of triumphant". The music is, as Hulkoff prefers it, iron-hard and grandiose. Melodic and aggressive, Metal for the Viking-hearted. The lyrics delve into the ancient ancestry of the North, and the way of life and the religion of the Kvens, The Scythians, The Goths, The Celts, the Finns and the later Norse. Blood-soaked, of course. From the bronze age through the migration period and into the iron age, Fenno-Scandia (or Etunaheimar/Jotunheim) has been a kettle of cultural birth. And fierce warriors. Ragnarök is HULKOFF’s third folk metal solo album, and was released on October 22 2021. With moving choruses and majestic tones, his newest record connects listeners with Scandinavian history and Norse myth while also offering glimpses of life here and now. This album is a follow-up to the very successful solo album Pansarfolk (released in 2020), which at its release entered the # 1 spot in both the Physical Album chart as well as the Rock Album Chart in Sweden.
