Symbel (band)

Symbel is an English heathen metal rock band, created in 2001 by Sceot Acwealde (also Bretwaldas of Heathen Doom and Herne), fusing lyrical elements of the English neopagan, anti-capitalist and esoteric anarchist circles with folkish and romanticist nationalist beliefs, drawing from the philosophies suggested in the Anglo-Saxon and Old Norse texts.
