Vetrar Draugurinn is a Dutch band formed around song writer / guitar player Eric Hazebroek (Stream of Passion); show casing his unique style of incorporating melancholic melodies with heavy, downtuned riffs and his eye for subtle detail and diversity. After Stream of Passions demise in 2016 Eric needed a new challenge to continue. Despite the Icelandic name, the band came to life in the Netherlands. Their goal is to make music from the heart, melancholic and gloomy, intense and fragile at some places, massive and loud in others. "Hinterlands" contains 11 songs of progressive, melancholic (doom) metal that will drag you into their travels and darkness. Vetrar Draugurinn is here to give you a glimpse of light in the dark forest, a little bit of warmth in the long wintery night.
