(TeamRock Radio) Icelandic metallers Skalmold say their music is inspired by their country's Viking and heathen heritage. The band are in the UK and Ireland this week as part of a widespread European tour.

The band released third album Meo Vaettum this week via Napalm Records and singer Bjorgvin Sigursson says "It's a good time to be a metalhead from Iceland."

He adds: "We wanted to incorporate our Viking and heathen heritage into our music and to use the sagas and Norse mythology as a reference point for the lyrics. We didn't want to just namedrop a few old gods."
