Bio:
Järnbörd was formed by Anders (Guitars/Vocals) from Ratad and different fuck ups, Jocke (Drums) from Ratad,
Cursus Bellum, Totenwelt, Immersed in blood, and Micke (Bass/Vocals) from Bestial Mockery and Illdåd.
We wanted to play crusty grind with lyrics in Swedish, in an effort to accumulate enormous wealth. We named
ourselves ”Den Mänskliga Faktorn” (The human factor) and released a demo, but later changed our name to
Järnbörd. The name “Järnbörd” is inspired by a play written by Magnus Dahlström. Järnbörd means ”ordeal by
fire” which was a test to ensure your allegiance to God or to prove your innocence if confronted by accusations in
European medieval times. Niklas Ehrlin, with a 20 year background in techno and electronic music, then in band
Headroom, now in also in Adore, became a full time member in Järnbörd 2018, handling all our samples and programming, and
has become an integral part of the music, both in live situations and in the studio.
In 2019 Micke - betrayed by society and the judicial system - did the only sane thing and moved to Dalsland, the only real Blashyrkh-area in Sweden. So, new
bass player. Dan Widing (Resonance Cascade, Pyramido, Deranged, Crowpath etc...) stepped in.
