Helga Wrapped In Mist Black Vinyl Edition

Once upon a time, Helga Gabriel was sequestered away in the far reaches of the Swedish hinterland. She sang in choirs, but in reality, the lake and woods were always her church. Her voice drifted like birds through an evening mist, chanting psalms amidst birch and pine. But in 2019, a calling stirred within Helga. She traveled 800 miles north to North Yorkshire, where she met three childhood friends and a precocious poly-instrumentalist. The rest is history. Helga was born. Helga draw on many different influences: Swedish folk, progressive metal, post-rock, pop, black metal. Their debut album, ‘Wrapped in Mist’, summons formidable drumming, spectral strings and chugging riffs into lamentations on mortality and metal health. They’re just getting started. But already, this young band have revealed themselves as a fresh, full force. FFO: Opeth, Anna Von Hausswolff, Alcest, The Gathering, Silver Mt. Zion, Myrkur, King Crimson.
