Forndom is the stage name of Swedish multi-instrumentalist and Nordic folk musician Ludvig Swärd. He has released three albums: 2020's Faþir, 2016's Dauðra Dura, and 2015's Flykt. The name Forndom is a combination of the Old Norse word fordom, meaning "of old", and the modern Swedish word forn, which means "ancient". Forndom's sound has been compared to that of Wardruna, as well as other bands in the Nordic folk scene.
