I Nordenvarg sono un gruppo folk viking metal nato a Pordenone, IT agli inizi del 2008 dal progetto di Heilgard (basso) e Gyrd (chitarra ritmica), rispettivamente, Giulio Kowalski ed Enrico Campello. Oltre ai 2 fondatori ne fanno parte Azaghal (Riccardo Rizzetto) come voce in growl/scream, Asgaror (Salvatore Garasto) come chitarrista solista e cori, Kodran (Matteo Trevisan) come tastierista e Arfast (Valentino Di Rosa) come batterista. La band è molto influenzata da gruppi comeEnsiferum, Moonsorrow, TrollfesT, Finntroll ed altri tuttavia non manca affatto lo stile proprio caratterizzatto da una fusione di suoni dolci e armoniosi a suoni più duri derivanti dall’influenza viking. I testi trattano di mitologia norrena, la cui fonte principale è l’Edda. I Nordenvarg hanno fatto uscire il loro primo demo il 15 maggio del 2009 (stesso giorno del loro primo concerto serio al FOLK METAL FEST di Pordenone conElvenking, Elven e Passion for bleeding) , un disco costituito da 5 tracce di media durata.

He was born in Pordenone on 14/12/1991. Since he was a child, Salvatore Garasto, was very interested in music. He began to play the piano at the age of 12, with a private teacher after 1 year as a self-taught. He Began to have such a strong interest in classical music, that used to study famous musicians / composers like Mozart, Beethoven, Bach etc. .. He became exited by classical music composition. At the age of 13 he discovered the famous band "The Beatles" and began to play as a self-taught classical guitar with the help of a lot of books. A year later, he bought an economic electric guitar, a copy of a Fender stratocaster, and within months he started to play grunge and to listen and play some songs made by Metal bands like Iron Maiden or Metallica. At the same time he left piano lessons because of disagreements between his parents and his piano teacher . Learnt the basics of the instrument (guitar), he formed a band with some school mates, known as "the illness", playing some songs made by bands like Nirvana and Hole. At the same time he was playing with another drummer with whom he will do the first concert of his life, though with little success. However, with The Illness things go much better. They played at a festival in Cordenons (their first concert) debuted with some Nirvana, Seether, Guns n Roses, cranberries and Haggard covers. the group began to tilt more and more to Metal music. the band "The Illness" became "Crows of blade" and began to play thrash death metal ... but after some time the band stopped to exist. At the dawn of 2007, Giulio Kowalsi (Heilgard) and Enrico Campello (Gyrd) took the decision to started a folk - viking metal band (Giulio likes so much this kind of music) asking to Salvatore to enter as lead guitar. From this moment, have begun the long history of Nordenvarg ....
