Vocals, organ, piano, and additional guitars, however, were recorded at Autumnsongs Recording Studio. Together with Rhys Marsh, Espen W. God\u00f8, and Espen Hammer, Lumsk worked intensively on the production and mix to capture both the intimacy and the musical weight of the poems. The band describes the lyrics by Norwegian poet Tor Jonsson (1916\u20131951) as deeply emotional and did not want to tone down this intensity in any way, but rather to bring them fully to life musically. Thus, \u201cEinsemda\u201d combines a personal atmosphere with Lumsk\u2019s signature blend of folk, progressive metal, and Nordic melancholy.    <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Listen to \u201cDaudmannhaugen\u201d on Spotify:<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/intl-de\/album\/0PtbqpCe82iqvK66BNmIdT?si=D8xA7pkoRnWIScSGVtmi1w\" title=\"Spotify Embed: Daudmannhaugen\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/0PtbqpCe82iqvK66BNmIdT?si=D8xA7pkoRnWIScSGVtmi1w&amp;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Schon unseren Newsletter abonniert?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-red-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/orkus1.com\/newsletter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Newsletter abonnieren<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:33px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Hier kannst Du das gedruckte Orkus!-Magazin abonnieren:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-0851a425 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-red-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.orkus-shop.de\/c\/abo\/deutschland\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Orkus!-Abo<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lumsk also took a personal approach to the production of \u201cEinsemda\u201d\u2014which is set to be released on October 30, 2026\u2014with most of the album recorded in the band members\u2019 home studios.
