Ildjarn

Norwegian black metal project

Ildjarn was a Norwegian black metal solo project that was active primarily in the early to mid-1990s. The artist behind Ildjarn was Vidar Vaaer, although he often used the moniker "Ildjarn" as his stage name. Ildjarn's music is known for its raw and minimalist style, often characterized by lo-fi production, repetitive structures, and an atmosphere that evokes the natural landscapes of Norway. The project is considered one of the more influential acts in the underground black metal scene, contributing to the genre with a number of releases that include full-length albums, EPs, and demos. Ildjarn's work has been praised for its uncompromising aesthetic and has garnered a cult following among fans of black metal. Despite the project's relatively short active period, Ildjarn's legacy continues to be felt within the genre.
