Symbel is an English heathen metal rock band, created in 2001 by Sceot Acwealde (also Bretwaldas of Heathen Doom and Herne),[1] fusing lyrical elements of the English neopagan, anti-capitalist and esoteric anarchist circles with folkish and romanticist nationalist beliefs, drawing from the philosophies suggested in the Anglo-Saxon and Old Norse texts.
