After the tragic death of Valfar, the rest of the Windir members decided to end Windir, and put their music into other projects. Hváll has now formed a new band. The new band is named Vreid.

Vreid is a Norwegian word for wrath. Vreid consists of the 3 Windir members Hváll(bass), Steingrim(drums), Sture (vocals/guitar) and a new
guitarist named Ese. Ese has been a close friend of the Vreid members for years, and he was coengineer on Windir’s «Likferd «album. Hváll has
written most of the material for the debut album entitled «KRAFT». The music will be a natural continuance of the music Hváll has written for Windir & Ulcus, but will have its own personal sound. A mixture of the ambience of Windir the, the rawness of Norwegian black metal and the rocking groove of Motorhead is a fitting description of the music of
Vreid. The lyrics will be both in Norwegian and English.

Vreid have signed a deal with Tabu recordings for 3 albums. The debut album are being recorded during the summer in Hváll’s new studio; Studio
1184, and will be mixed at Subsonic Society Studio (Susperia, Windir, Red Harvest, Darkthrone etc..) in Oslo. Release is set to 4th of October 2004.
Expect an album of dark, aggressive and powerful Norwegian metal.

Members: Hváll: Bass, Steingrim: Drums, Sture: Vocals & Guitar, Ese: Guitar
