Title - Vaketimen
Artist - Evig Natt
For those not in the know, EVIG NATT’s music is aggressive but subtle, noisy yet beautiful, a maelstrom of symphonic darkness that could only be described as Orchestral Gothic Doom Metal.
From the unholy metal grounds of Karmøy, west Norway, this band follows in the footsteps of Einherjer and Enslaved, featuring ex-band members of both.
EVIG NATT was started as a studio project in 2003 by vocalist Kirsten Jørgensen and bassist Stein Sund. Soon after that, EVIG NATT recruited drummer Harald Magne Revheim. In 2006, EVIG NATT signed with Omvina Records and released their highly acclaimed debut album I Am Silence in early 2007.
EVIG NATT added Oskar Naley on vocals, Ruben Osnes, and Arne Marton Tangjerd on guitars for the recording of their darker and heavier second offering. After signing with Black Bards in 2009, Darkland was released to raving reviews in April 2010. This alliance saw EVIG NATT featured in national magazines worldwide, including Metal Hammer and Scream.
EVIG NATT released their third self-titled album Evig Natt on March 19th, 2016, and off the back of that got to tour countries such as Belgium and Japan. And now they have released their fourth album, the mighty Vaketimen here in 2026 via Wormhole Death.

At The End Of The Night [05:34]
The much underrated Gothic Metal band open on the veritably glistening, aptly-titled Shimmer and then comes the thunderously melodic Last Of The Light, the rousing Death and both the all-embracing, affecting Når Lyset Svikte and a highly emotive Nordic folk tune Gråtaslaget.
Along next is the deeply-grooved Sorrow My World and the Celtic-hued, subtle ambiance of In The Darkness and they are in turn backed by the rhythmically strident Eahparas, the emphatically-charged Tallemaja, coming to a close on the engagingly absorbent At The End Of The Night.
