The Lay of Thrym
The story of King Thrym, who dared steal Thor's hammer "Mjollnir," may set the lyrical stage on Tyr's latest album, but it does not prevent them from covering more current topics like in the track "Shadow of the Swastika." The Lay of Thrym follows the path of the band's previous releases by uniting classic heavy metal riffs with impressive drumming, traditional melodies, and powerful choruses. The Lay of Thrym is a genuine Viking metal album that secures Tyr's hold on this genre.
