Biography

Ulfhednar was born in 2014, after the experience of Delirium Tremens and these ones were formed in 2011 by Hevn (guitar) and Vlad (drum). In 2012 Eclipsis joined the band as the main singer and the band started writing the first songs until Vlad left the band.
After a short break, in 2014, Vega joined the band as bass player and, with this line-up, Delirium Tremens decided to change their name to Ulfhednar and recorded their first demo called “Delirium Tremens” (an homage to their past), with Scintilla as drum programmer. 
In 2015 Cerberus became part of the band as drummer and, after Vega left the project, Dmytrius took the role of bass player. Now with Hevn (Guitars), Eclipsis (Voice), Cerberus (Drum) and Dmytrius (Bass) the band finally found a stable line up. 
The 6th of July 2017 Ulfhednar gave birth to their first full lenght “Mortaliter”, presented the same day; now Ulfhednar are continuing their live experience playing in a lot of important clubs like Traffic Live Club in Rome and Orange Club in Pescara and important festival as RoMetal festival in Rome together with some italians great bands like Furor Gallico, Lunarsea, Atavicus and they were also called in the radio program Radio byNight by the italian radio station Radio Radio 104.5 fm.
Ulfhednar try to separate themselves from the traditional Black Metal standards both in the sounds than in the lyrics. The sound is strongly influenced by scandinavian black metal and by doom and classical heavy metal to create an original and distintive sound; their lyrics are influenced by the mud and the screams of the city, infact Ulfhednar are related with the city of Rome and with his perifery.
The origins of the name 'Ulfhednar' go back to the scandinavian mithology: they were shamans and tribal leaders wich, in battle, could turn themselves into wolves to attack savagely their enemies until death. 
We choose this name because it describes completely our intent: we are all normal people without any particular characteristics, in fact in our lyrics we talk about personal issues and experiences. But, when we start to play, we loose our human essence and crash with our power against the only real enemy: The Life. This concept is represented by our first full lenght (Mortaliter), that tells our journey from the origins of the band (Delirium Tremens), until the present in a succession of dark stories. 
Mortaliter is the latin form for 'in the mortal condition' and this name perfectly describes our first job. We talk about life in all its facets and implicitly about life as disease. A disease that only afflicts who lives 'in the mortal condition.
The texts tell life stories and personal issues of the band’s members described in a very extreme and brutal way. Their purpose is to put real and every day life into black metal.
