about

Blòt is the spirit of the "Blòt Heathen" project, born four years ago in a feverish winter-spring by the minds of Orlando Li Mandri and Leonardo Sorrentino.
From this album the Blòt Heathen project was born, and we are proud to present it posthumously to his production, after years of gestation and waiting!

"Blòt" is the essence of the concept album, a journey, song by song, in the rituals of the Germanic-Scandinavian peoples from the Iron Age up to 1000-1100 AD.
In "The Call", we introduce the meeting of two Gothi, who are heading towards the village to call the people to the great ritual.
So begins your journey, you will first enter the sacred forest, "Forest Hov", and then move on to the frenetic and powerful moment of sacrifice, central part of the Blòt.
Thus the "Blood" will be poured out, and the "Bless" will be sung in honor of Freya.
And it is precisely here, in the moment of maximum splendor of the ritual, that the Gods will walk with you by your side, and you will have the "Vision".
