Nordstahl's "Mjölnir": pure poetry in modern metal

"Disruptive lyrics and thunderous instrumentals synchronized with gritty vocals."

The Nordstahl is a band from Germany. The band known for its metal sounds and mythological-themed lyrics has yet again created a masterpiece, keeping their essence alive, named "Mjölnir."

The song starts strong with heavy drums and hypnotic drops of electric guitar. The riffs are powerful and align with the beat. The whole song makes you feel awake; its pulsating rhythm makes you want to just keep listening.

"The new fight song for people."

The lyrics of the song are pure poetry. The desperation to fight, but the contemplation of what to fight for, is portrayed perfectly in the pre-chorus. The lyrical element of the song is one of a kind. It's raw, gritty, has the edge, and makes you feel. The whole song is a contemplation of acting bravely or letting it be. The dilemma that the singer is in seems to be the kind that only a mythological war hero might be in. That is one thing that makes the song perfect if you want to lose a little touch from reality, yet graze the ethical quandary we all face in the modern world. The rough tones hold a very strong yet gentle message of underlying hope that is alive in each and every one of us somewhere. The song carries a profound message of holding on in the midst of hopelessness. Something that can inspire all of us. Altogether, the song feels revolutionary, strong, gritty, and powerful.
