Wait, the music from the Hellblade 2 trailer is from an actual, real-world band

When the trailer for Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 dropped at The Game Awards 2019, you’d be lying if you said those chants and growls didn’t freak you out a little bit. Pairing those Pagan chants with the trailer’s visuals of fiery runes, people wearing branch hats, and Senua’s face as her eyes roll about wildly made the whole thing even creepier. I love it. Turns out those chants weren’t just created for the game, but are actually from a song by the band Heilung, an IRL experimental folk/industrial group who’s working on the entire Hellblade 2 soundtrack.
