The shamanic techno vikings of EIHWAR are set to join forces with Mongolian rock giants The HU this June for a string of electrifying dates across Germany and France. Known for conjuring wild ritual chaos and myth-fueled dancefloor eruptions, the clan will bring their Viking War Trance rites to new battlefields as main support on The HU’s European tour.

Founded by Asrunn (vocals, traditional percussion) and Mark (machines, vocals), Eihwar have quickly carved out a cult reputation thanks to their viral debut, sold-out ritual appearances, and a first album, Viking War Trance, released through Season of Mist in 2024. Their performances fuse seiðr magic, trance-inducing machines, and Nordic percussion into an ecstatic war cry against modern rigidity.

This marks a rare pairing of sonic traditions: Eihwar’s neo-viking electro chaos will ignite the stage before The HU’s thunderous blend of Mongolian folk metal—offering a double ritual of ancient power and modern force.

Those unfamiliar with EIHWAR’s stage presence should prepare for something far beyond a concert. The clan’s live rites are mytho-industrial ceremonies—half rave, half berserker séance. In last year’s live performance at Hellfest, captured in a blaze of runes and LED pulses, Asrunn wields the drum like a warhammer while unleashing guttural invocations, her voice channeled through ancestral flame and distortion.
