Unnamed I liked it. Favorite track: The Wìndjigò.

Rindenberg Only with the use of richly layered guitar feedbacks Northumbria summoned a slow moving behemoth telling an epic story about a journey to the northern shores. The amount of sceneries and emotions displayed is overwhelming, from windswept landscapes to beautiful valleys, from mythical creatures to the deep fears of the northern winter nights. Northumbria clearly created an album that will stand the test of time like a stubborn rock in the seas of Vinland. Incredible! Favorite track: Still Valley I.

I am Black Hill The amazing final chapter of this monumental age document. The whole series is an unrepeatable masterpiece. Immortal music for mortals. Favorite track: Frozen Lake.

Alice M. I was post-processing pictures the first time I listened to this, and I ended up staring at the screen with watery eyes, not really knowing why.

rikm Vast, immense, and beautiful, "Vinland" is an epic collection that speaks to mysteries, myth, and magic.

Another stunningly awesome release from Northumbria.

spotswood462 Filling my phone with dark ambient! Northumbria provides beautiful soundscapes for writing. Vinland is their best album yet.

Shout out to Cryo Chamber. Best dark ambient label on the net! Favorite track: Still Valley I.

about

Vinland is the third and last album in Northumbria’s trilogy inspired by the Norse discovery of Canada.

The journey was long and hard, you lost good men sailing across the never ending sea, but now you stand on foreign land. The father of gods watches over you as his ravens circle the funeral pyre to bring his warriors home.

The rocks here emanate a low hum, the silent wind carries the scent of honey and at nightly camp bestial cries echo between the mountains. Your men speak in hushed voices as the dark creeps close, they mutter about this being the territory of new gods. This dreamy land is getting to your people, some men wake screaming in the blackest hour from visions delivered by the dark below. But for you this expedition is one of enlightenment, the fresh rivers fill your mouth with the light of Yggdrasil, forests carry whispers from the mead halls beyond and as such have you convinced that this is the pathway between the worlds of gods and men.

Using guitar and bass, and recording their improvised compositions live, Jim Field and Dorian Williamson create a deep textured sound world. Evoking the ancient wonder that the Norse explorers must have felt discovering Vinland, the Windswept Land.
