In an attempt to improve my life quality I decided to try to finish an album without overthinking it and practice “letting go when it’s good enough” (which is something I have struggled with in the past decade).

The result is “Heavy Metal at the Summer House” which I started working on 2 weeks ago, set to release any day now.

It’s inspired by my childhood dream of becoming a guitar player, playing my acoustic guitar on the lawn of my grandparents summer house imagening it to be a huge stage. The album cover is a picture taken during one of those moments when I was 5 years old.

The album is completely instrumental and a tribute to the guitar players that have inspired me through the years.

I was fortunate to have my band mate and friend Skúli Gíslason play drums on two of those songs.

Tracklist:

1. The Ace
2. Heavy Metal at the Summer House
3. Untethered
4. Stream of Peace
5. A Story from ‘91
6. Black Cats and Witches *
7. Hrafninn
8. Higher Self *

*Drums by Skúli Gíslason

Stream or download the new single “The Devil I Love” on your preferred streaming platform.

The song was written and recorded last summer and draws its inspiration from late 80’s metal.
Played on a down-tuned 8-string guitar, with 3 guitar solos and no click track involved, I really had a great time making this one and I’m very pleased with the result and happy to be able to release it finally!

with love

Sincere thanks to Sigismund for the flattering words and interest in my latest solo album.

I have been silent for a while now, but that usually means that I’m working hard on something new…
So it may not come as a surprise to some, but ever since the release of my last album, I have not stopped working on new material.
“Forest Lovesongs” is the first of 3 solo albums to be ready, the other two will follow shortly after… somtime next year.

I decided not to release any singles beforehand, I’d rather it would be experienced as a whole but I just couldn’t not-give you anything to go on, so I decided to have the song “Release” available for everyone who pre-orders the album.

Pre-ordered cd’s will be shipped by the end of september, so chances are that Europeans will have it in their hands before the official release date, which is the 12th of Oct. 2022.

Much love
/Ragnar

I have just released a new song on bandcamp from my upcoming album.

The song is called Headphones and it is a tribute to the importance of music, the beautiful feeling of putting your headphones on and watching the rest of the world and all of its problems disappear.
