Apart from being a collaborative effort by Helrunar und Arstidir Lifsins, who each recorded one song of epic length exclusively for this split release, Fragments – A Mythological Excavation is the title of this release and it has an overall duration of 35 minutes. Both groups delve into mythological topics: Helrunar’s Wein Fur Polyphem draws from Homer’s Odyssey while Arstidir Lifsins Vindsvalarmal taps into the sources of Old Norse mythology. What in the end unifies both songs musically as well as lyrically are their monumental character and apocalyptic undertone which is manifest to the elemental force of those mythological ideas – a power reanimated by Fragments.
