More than a decade after its dissolution, Ljuset returns. What began in 2010 as a black metal band formed in youth has, over time, revealed itself as something enduring: a spiritual and creative bond between Simon Johansson (Bhleg) and Emanuel Tägil, shaped by distance, silence, and eventual rekindling.
The reactivation came in 2025, sparked by renewed contact between its members. What followed was a period of focused creativity, with Johansson composing the music and Tägil developing the lyrics in close dialogue. Elements from early Ljuset demos were revisited and woven into the new material, further anchoring the present manifestation in the past.
