Lóge created the first music of what would become Alverg around the winter of 2002.

By the summer of 2003 the music had formed into an idea and a concept. Afour track demo was recorded, thanks to Dezartog taking care of drums, and Broder Magnus putting on some piano.

The demo generated some interest from a few labels, but due to a collection of unfortunate circumstances a full album was never released.
Alverg was silent for many years.

In the closing of 2007, Heolstor joined and made possible for the first time to work dedicated and focused on making Alverg spread its wings.

The meaning of the word "Alverg"

How do you find a name that will describe all the music you have made, and are going to make in the future? It's not easy.
I solved it by making my own word : "Alverg". This word is however put together by two excisting words :

The word 'Verg' means someone who watches over, protects or takes care of something.

The word 'Al' is a name of a certain kind of wood that forms in trees that grow in cold and shadowfull places. The wood gets particulary strong and robust on this kind of trees.

To sum up, "Alverg" means something alog the lines of 'Strong guardian'.
