Runhild Gammelsæter – Amplicon
Runhild Gammelsæter joined Thorr’s Hammer when she met Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson while in the United States as a foreign exchange student. The product of six weeks of collaboration resulted in Sannhet i Blodet, a twenty minute demo and their lone album, 1996′s Dommedagsnatt. The band’s lifespan was cut short due to Gammelsæter’s return to her native Norway. It is now well known that O’Malley and Anderson have gone on to carve a path in heavy music with Sunn0))) (whose album White1 Gammelsæter is a guest), Burning Witch, Khanate and myriad collaborations. While Thorr’s Hammer may or may not have pioneered what is now known as DOOM music, it’s undeniable that they presented an impetus for the path it would take thereafter. Following Thorr’s Hammer, Gammelsæter appears to have worked extensively on her studies, as she possesses a PhD in cell Physiology, is a Fulbright Scholar and currently heads a Norwegian biotechnology company.
