Fortid (correct spelling Fortíð) plays atmospheric and oldschool Black/Viking Metal. Formed in Iceland 2002 as the solo project of Einar Thorberg, AKA Eldur, with the main purpose of putting one of the most important Ásatrú literature; Völuspá, into musical form, to honor the old ways. This was to be done in the form of a trilogy. In 2003 the debut was already out through No Colours Records entitled "Völuspá part I: Thors Anger". Due to this being a side project at the current time, the second album "Völuspá part II: The Arrival of Fenris" did not hit the scene until in 2007.
