E37 - "While Dying" by Skjolden with Carl Skildum Grateful to catch up with an old fried, Carl Skildum.  Skjolden is the first solo project from Carl Skildum of Inexorum, Majesties, and Antiverse. Located in Minneapolis and entirely self-directed, Skjolden exists in the thrilling intersection of melodic black and death metal, with layered guitars and synth-laden crescendos. On this episode, we focus on “While Dying”, one of the standout tracks from Insouciant Metaphysical Grandeur (released June 20, 2025). Clocking in at 3:58, the song conjures fiery riffs, ethereal keys, and growled verses. We’ll unpack the lyrical weight and musical architecture of “While Dying”, talk about how synths color the black metal storm, and explore how Skildum marries existential dread with cathartic melody. If you’re fascinated by underground metal crafted with wit, grit, and atmospheric depth—this episode is your cathedral of sound.

A black and white image of Skjolden, in Norway. There are snow-capped mountains in the background, and huts to the right side, with clear reflections in the water. There is a gentle mist, floating in from the right side of the image.

Sometimes you get the sense that Norway is just bragging about their scenery. This kind of crazy beauty is just everywhere. Annoying really, but what can you do?

This was Skjolden on a beautiful April morning.
