Einherjer is a Viking metal band from Haugesund, Norway, founded in 1993. Some of the band's albums are folk-influenced, while others have a traditional symphonic black metal sound. Their lyrics retell Norse legends, and each album has a theme. The band split up in early 2004 after releasing the album Blot in December 2003, but later reformed. In December 2004, all members of Einherjer's last lineup, including founders Frode Glesnes and Gerhard Storesund, formed thrash metal band Battered with bass guitarist Ole Moldesæther. In September 2008, Einherjer reunited to play select shows across Europe in 2009, including the Ragnarök, Kaltenbach and Wacken festivals. The band signed with Indie Recordings in December 2010. Their first album in eight years, Norrøn, was released in September 2011. Einherjer has since released four more studio albums. The latest, Lifeblood, was released on June 19, 2026.
