HENGET is a Finnish psychedelic/avant-garde black metal band founded in Finland during late 2021 by guitarist-songwriter Jesse J. Heikkinen and vocalist-lyricist King Aleijster de Satan.” There’s something strangely seductive about the eight tracks included on 'Beyond North Star', as if the listeners were invited to enter some alternative and colourful place, dangerous and scary yet always otherworldly. Some may argue that all along you will most likely cross there the ghosts of Dødheimsgård, Arcturus or King Crimson. The name HENGET was chosen because of its double meaning as it can be translated both as ‘life’ but also ‘spirits’, “a perfect name for an occult band”. Beyond North Star is a “loose” concept album, like one long journey, even if the songs are not exactly tied up together. One they will never forget.

Lyrics:
Fungi with consciousness
I am a Mushroom

Accept this sacrament of the great deep north
as the forest is my church and the nature divine

I see North Star and it’s light is calling me home
I have crossed the borders of mind and soul
All things here takes a shape of most strange

I see North Star and it’s light is embracing me
I see a glimpse of the great hall behind
The place of the grand feast
My rabbit hole

Some say it’s Valhalla
Some say Tuonela
Hell to some, heaven to others
Ancestors called it Lovi
Other’s pain is another’s pleasure
and the words reflect the speaker
But this guardian of the threshold
speaks not with the tongue of human

How deep this goes? How far can I go?
Without me losing the touch with ”I” (the Eye)
A mirage, reflection, microcosm
Of what lies here and what we all are
Deeper I go, higher I get
I can lick the surface
There’s no ”I”
There’s no ”You”

Follow the light
Follow the light
Follow the light
It’s all connected by the will of the Great Fractal Spiral

O’ North Star
The white eye of the great fractal spiral
Guiding us as above and below
Through the astral shadows
All the way through the endless oceans
Above the crown of mind
O’ North Star
The white eye of the great fractal spiral
