Blackened Horde: How did the band get started?
Wulfheim: Wulfheim was created in late 2008 as one-man band by the result of the dissolution of other bands to create something entirely personal and without any restrictions based solely on the own ideas and influences of the only member of the project.
Blackened Horde: What kind of music do you play?
Wulfheim: Fast and extreme raw Black Metal.
Blackened Horde: How has the fan response been?
Wulfheim: I’m glad about fans response, because for a band as Wulfheim that plays a very fast and agressive kind of music isn’t easy to get fans.
Blackened Horde: Where did the band name come from?
Wulfheim: Originally it comes for the name that I put for myself in the band and at same time was the name of a song that I did and that was changed to another later. Comes from two different words, Wulf is the translation for Wolf in english that means same thing in germanic and Heim comes from the translation in the scandinavian language for Home or Land. Then I joined the ones to form something as “Wolf´s Home”or “Land Of The Wolf”.Years after I discovered a book called Wulfheim. Didn’t know anything about is pure coincidence, don´t know the book or anything with the publication.
Blackened Horde: Introduce the band members and what they do in the band.
Wulfheim: Wulfheim. All
Blackened Horde: Who writes the music? Lyrics?
Wulfheim: I do music, lyrics and all the work behind Wulfheim.
Blackened Horde: And where do the lyric ideas come from?
Wulfheim: From the real thing. Nothing about beliefs, legends or myths.
Blackened Horde: What is your view in Satanism and Occultism?
Wulfheim: Satanism is for me just another kind of religion or cult. You can worship anything you want is it means something strong for yourself. In my own opinion is just another way to scape from reality using a belief. About occultism is a belief in what you can’t see but that´s there watching you in the other side. I find interesting some things envolving that kind of view.
Blackened Horde: How many albums/CD’s have you released?
Wulfheim: In 2009 the first album “De Profundis”, second one was “Crowland” in 2010.
In 2011 was recorded the single “Hvarfheim”.This ones was released without label. Currently I´m recording right now the new Cd that will be entitled “Al Svart” and if everything goes right will be edited by the label Mortis Humanae Productions from France.
Blackened Horde: Tell me about some the songs on the latest CD?
Wulfheim: They will be more darker and aggressive than the other ones. Musically talking are different because contains more dark elements and atmospheres and also I did for the lyrics a difference in this album, something as fragments of horror poems. The album also contains the two song that appears in my single “Hvarfheim”.I´ve recorded again the ones to unite to the new ones and get same atmosphere. I´m very proud of my new work.
Blackened Horde: Do you have any side projects?
