Nordic Discord Challenge Week 37 - 2026 Genre: Swamp Rock Theme: Trolls Lyrics: [Intro – Chant] Hrím... hrím... Hrímgrimnir... Frost walks where the fire died... Hrím... hrím... Hrímgrimnir... Come down from the glacier side... [Verse 1] Down in the bayou where the black water freeze, Somethin' old and hungry movin' through the trees, Ain't no gator, ain't no snake in the mud, It's a troll from the ice draggin' frost through the blood. [Verse 2] Got a mask made of rime, eyes like a winter moon, Every swamp critter howlin' out a warnin' tune, He don't need no fire, he don't feel no cold, He's older than the river, older than the gods of old. [Chorus] Hrimgrimnir, Hrimgrimnir, walkin' through the fen, Frost-Masked terror comin' for the sins of men, Hrimgrimnir, Hrimgrimnir, cold as the grave, Ain't no swamp fire gonna save you, ain't no charm gonna save. [Verse 3] Skírnir warned the giantess, told her of her fate, "Dwell with the frost troll behind the dead man's gate," Same curse creepin' through this Louisiana night, Ice on the cypress where there ain't supposed to be no ice. [Chorus] Hrimgrimnir, Hrimgrimnir, walkin' through the fen, Frost-Masked terror comin' for the sins of men, Hrimgrimnir, Hrimgrimnir, cold as the grave, Ain't no swamp fire gonna save you, ain't no charm gonna save. [Bridge – Old Norse-style Chant, low and droning] Hrím yfir mýrar, hrím yfir vann, Grimnir gengur, jötunn maðr, Hrím... hrím... Hrímgrimnir gengur, Frost over marshland, frost over man. [Guitar Solo – slide guitar, swampy and menacing] [Verse 4] The moss hangs heavy, the swamp gas glows, But the chill keeps risin' everywhere he goes, No summer left in the water or the sky, When Hrimgrimnir's shadow comes slitherin' by. [Final Chorus – full band, heavier] Hrimgrimnir, Hrimgrimnir, walkin' through the fen, Frost-Masked terror comin' for the sins of men, Hrimgrimnir, Hrimgrimnir, cold as the grave, Ain't no swamp fire gonna save you, ain't no charm gonna save. [Outro – Chant, fading] Hrím... hrím... Hrímgrimnir... Frost walks where the fire died... Hrím... hrím... Hrímgrimnir... The troll of ice, the frost that never dies...
