We promised to post some pictures of the re-released edition of "Födzlepijnan" when we ourselves had copies of the album in our hands. Well, we still don't have any copies yet, they're on the way however (but you can pick it up now here), but here are some pictures of the album reissue for you to behold.

Greetings, folks!
In case you have missed it, our album "Födzlepijnan" has just recently been re-released by the kind people at new Russian label Myrkr (an offshoot of Vegvisir music)! It is available right now on cd, packaged in a 6 panel digipack (limited to 1000 copies), with expanded art designed in conjunction between us, Hamnskifte, and the label, but it will also be available later this year as a 2xLP (limited to 500 copies), for those of you out there who still prefer your music on vinyl.
Out of courtesy for the label we have decided to remove the option to download "Födzlepijnan" over at our Bandcamp-site. Sorry for any inconvenience that might cause. You can however still listen to the album in its entirety there.
We will eventually have copies of the album to sell as well (and will put up pictures of them when we do), but for the moment head over here if you are interested in acquiring a copy. Note however that the site is in Russian.
Be well,
Hamnskifte

Hamn
Greetings all!
Shaped over a long time, it is now finally finished; we offer up to the world our latest release, "Hamn". A song/album, roughly thirteen minutes in duration, inspired by nature's splendour and focusing on the softer/more folky elements of Hamnskifte, with a heavy emphesis on acoustic instrumentation. Head over to our camp to listen to and/or download the song/album.
We'll have more news regarding "Hamn", as well as "Födzlepinan", shortly!

Greetings any and all!
It has come to our attention that "Födzlepijnan" is now sold out (thank you very much to anyone who has showed an interest in our craft!) at both Khrysanthoney (formerly Starlight Temple Society) and Aquarius Records, so we have decided to make the album available for free. If you follow these directions, which will lead you deeper yet into the web of ones and zeroes, you will eventually reach Hamnskifte's newest place of dwelling online. And as of yesterday our full-length album "Födzlepijnan" can be found there within, in its entirety, free to download for any and all. Do with that whatever your heart desires.

Aquarius Records
Review from Aquarius Records:
"Another release on the awesome Starlight Temple Society (which while now sadly defunct, seems to have mutated into Khrysanthoney, home to recent aQ faves Clair Cassis and Necktarium), this one from a mysterious European duo, whose sound is inspired by, according to the band themselves, Low, Labradford, Earth, Burzum, Skepticism, Nortt and Trollmann Av Ildtoppberg. But imagine those influences channeled into something more medieval sounding, and WAY more post rocky, a sort of droning medieval slowcore laid beneath softly buzzing metallic rumble and shimmer, and you'll get an idea of Hamnskifte's sound.
The opening track is the perfect example, the core sound, a simple minor key guitar jangle, the drums sparse and spare, the rhythm slow and stately, all beneath a gauzy layer of slo-mo glacial riffage, that sort of Earth/SUNNO))) black buzz, smeared and blurred into something much more washed out and ethereal, while beneath, the band introduce other bits of buzz and drone, what sound like accordions or harmoniums, a gorgeously smoldering blackened slowcore, meditative and hypnotic.
The next track is even more blissed out. The metal/buzz element relegated to a more minimal bit of pulsing droniness, beneath the gorgeously skeletal arrangement, the guitars crystalline and shimmery, it's not hard to imagine this being on a label like Temporary Residence, reminding us a bit of a more minimal instrumental Pinback, or even Temporary Residence unsungs Lumen.
The rest of the record unfolds similarly, the sounds laid back and languorous, a darkened slowcore/postrock hybrid, that seems to be only slightly blackened, and instead, shuffles and meanders, the sound hypnotic and mesmerizing, the arrangements simple and cyclical, droney and dreamy and surprisingly poppy.
Odds are this might get overlooked by the folks who would dig it most, considering the label, and the other way blacker and heavier bands on the label, but anyone into dark, droney minimal, brooding and beautiful slow motion post rock, this will definitely hit the spot."

"Hamnskifte, "Födzlepijnan"
Another great release from the folks over at Starlight Temple Society. I'm having a problem putting it into words, and I really can't compare it to anything else I've heard, so I'll let the label do the talking.
""Födzlepijnan" is the debut album of mysterious Hamnskifte, a duo from parts unknown (to you, but not to us. :-) This debut CD contains 5 lengthy compositions of medieval folk inspired music washed over with droning metal guitars and dreamy trance inducing melodies. Recorded on 24 karat gold CD. Packaged in a printed metallic silver envelope and comes with 8 page booklet and poster. Limited to 125 units."
Well said. The gold CD is a nice touch, and is somehow fitting of the music here, which definitely feels grandiose and decadent while still somehow remaining spare. . Very impressive..."
