Brothers of Metal is a Swedish power metal band formed in 2012 from Falun. Their first album Prophecy of Ragnarök was released in November 2017.[1] The band consists of three vocalists (two male, one female), three guitar players, a bass player, and a drummer. The band's visual style and lyrics are inspired by Vikings and Norse mythology, and are often purposefully over-the-top, which earns them both criticism and praise.[2]

History

Brothers of Metal formed in 2012 with a vision to create "true metal," when a night of drinking led to the creation of their first song, "Son of Odin."[3] They self-released their debut album Prophecy of Ragnarök in 2017, and their second album Emblas Saga was released in 2020. Their next album Fimbulvinter is set to release November 1 2024.

On June 22, 2024, the band released a music video for the song "Heavy Metal Viking".[4] [5]
