Týr

Týr is a folk metal band from the Faroe Islands. The band has been described as one of the islands’ two most successful metal bands. Their lyrical themes are primarily based on Viking lore, mythology, and history, and they take their name from Týr, the god of war in Norse religion. Before forming Týr, Heri Joensen and Gunnar H. Thomsen formed their first band, Cruiser, at the age of 17. Kári Streymoy also played with them for a short period.
