Tyr-Kreis is a side-project of Marcel P. with no own releases yet, but on the "Mia Runa" compilation of the Steinklang label, Halgadom appeared under the name "Tyr-Kreis" (with a new version of the song "Ostara" from their second album), because Gegentum, another band appearing on that compilation, refused to be on one compilation with Halgadom for personal and political reasons.
