Biography of BandGlittertind was founded in 2001 by Torbjørn Sandvik (b-1985). He wanted to start a project inspired by Norwegian tales, traditions, history, art and culture. All these ingredients were mixed in a black pot together with punk, metal and folk, or like Metal Hammer put it: “A bizarre combination of folksy mellowness, hardcore punk riffing, Nordic power/thrash metal and winsome sea-shanty melodies straight out of Captain Pugwash.” The bandname Glittertind was chosen because it gives associations to vast nature, national-romantic mystics and because it is geographically placed in the “heart of Norway” – Jotunheimen. Many great Norwegian artists, poets and authors have got uncountable strong impressions from this part of our country. These impressions have been reflected in their works and been a great source of inspiration for Torbjørn. Glittertind is also the name of the highest mountain in Norway. |
