Everything created under the name ARCKANUM is an extension of Shamaatae's Thursian spiritual practice and artistic vision. The music is conceived not simply as artistic expression, but as an act of magical will, shaped to evoke specific inner states, esoteric ideas, and atmospheres without compromise or conformity.
From its beginning, ARCKANUM has followed the Left-Hand Path: the way of the outsider, the vargar, standing beyond imposed order and conventional morality. Resistance, questioning, and individual will have always remained fundamental to both Shamaatae's spiritual Work and his approach to art.
The forthcoming album carries this principle further as a complete magical working. Music, lyrics, sound, and visual form have been developed as interconnected parts of the same ritual expression, shaped through intent and devotion within Shamaatae's Thursatru Workings.
Written in Old Swedish (fornsvenska), the lyrics draw upon Old Norse and Swedish poetic traditions while incorporating elements of Swedish svartkonst. They function as mythic charms and narrative incantations, invoking the Thursian current.
Musically, the new material represents a fusion of ARCKANUM's older foundations with Shamaatae's present approach to composition. The new album Beswærilsin cuts deep with a feral, unpolished production, raw with aggression and stripped of unnecessary ornament. Its sound moves between the freezing storms of Niflheimr and the relentless, blazing fury of Múspellsheimr, at once cold and searing, primitive and forceful, carrying the unmistakable spirit of ARCKANUM into a harsher and more dynamic form.

“Första Trulen” is the very first recording of the classic “Trulen” demo tape released by ARCKANUM in 1994. Shamaatae, solo member of the band, recorded this demo by himself on a Fostex 4-track portastudio cassette tape recorder in 1994, but he didn’t like how it turned out, so he recorded it all over again and this recording was left in a box until now.
The release includes the very first version of the song “Ængin Oforhærra” which was not on the previously released demo! And all the ambient songs are the experimental first versions.
The songs were newly mixed and mastered.

Re-issue, 250 x white 12" (180g), innersleeve on 220g, jacket full-color on 350g, all assembled in a PVC overbag.
The band was founded in 1992 by Shamaatae, who had previously played drums in CONQUEST/GROTESQUE (which were to become AT THE GATES). Shamaatae is also renowned for his occult writings on Pan, anti-cosmic Satanism, Norse tradition, runic witchcraft and chaos-Gnosticism, all of which inspire his music. Now “Helvítismyrkr” marks the next step in the evolution of ARCKANUM by adding strong influences from the 80’s to its unique Black and Death Metal mix. Descend into the dark realm of Hel!
