Biography

edit

Vrangsinn joined Norwegian black metal band Carpathian Forest in 1999. He departed the band in 2014, before rejoining in 2019. Vrangsinn is known for his bizarre stage stunts while performing live with Carpathian Forest. In addition to his musical career, he is an active poet, painter, and has created art in other forms such as concrete art, jewelry, steel crosses and pentagrams.[4][5][1][2] His poetry is often critical of religion and dogma.

In 2007, Vrangsinn founded the non-profit record label Misantrof ANTIRecords, through which he releases music by his solo project and other bands freely to the general public with a creative commons license.[6]

Vrangsinn believes art should belong to humanity as a whole and that everyone should have equal rights to access and share the art.
