Týr (Faroese: [tʰʊɪːɹ]) is a folk metal band from the Faroe Islands. They have been characterised as one of "the islands' two most successful metal bands". Their subject matter revolves almost entirely around Viking lore, mythology, and history, taking their name from Týr, the god of war in Norse religion.
