Laeknishendr or Læknishendr is a 1995 demo by the German Viking metal band Falkenbach.

According to Aðalbjörn Tryggvason of Sólstafir, this demo was recorded in one of Iceland's national parks, Þingvellir.

[1] The original version was limited to 33 units, but it was bootlegged by several labels.

Vratyas Vakyas plays a more black/doom metal oriented sound, which is more harsh and aggressive than later works.

Laeknishendr was an important release for the development of the German Viking/pagan metal scene.
