  gjalp
Gjalp was standing upriver, raising the water with her menstrual blood.
Thor hefted a rock from the river and tossed it toward Gjalp, stopping the flood at its source.
According to the myth, Thor was vulnerable to the attacks of Gjalp and her sister because he left Asgard without Mjolnir, his belt of strength, or his iron gloves.

 Geirrod
A frost giant and father of two daughters, Gjalp and Greip.
He was a bitter enemy of Thor, and having captured Loki (when Loki was flying around as a hawk) received from him a promise that he, Loki, would bring Thor to Geirrod's castle without Thor having his magic belt and magic hammer.

Sonically expect some "cold static tones" and "extreme industrial filth" and the damage (besides your emotional well being that is) is $10US postage paid.
If that doesn't do it for you, you might prefer the C34 split between ALTAR OF FLIES, M Frisk and Gjalp.
This one is named "Krig Pest Svält Död" and is said to offer some "heavy, spook, creep with metal noises for a rough junk attitude!" (always with the attitude).

AB: The spectacular 1996 jokulhlaup from the subglacial lake at Grimsvotn central volcano, beneath the Vatnajokull ice sheet in Iceland, was generated by a subglacial eruption at Gjalp midway between Bardarbunga and Grimsvotn central volcanoes.
The differentiation that produced the Gjalp magma may have taken place in a subsidiary magma chamber that last erupted in 1938 and would be located directly beneath the 1996 eruption site.
This chamber were ruptured when a tectonic fracture propagated southward from Bardarbunga central volcano as indicated by the seismicity that preceded the eruption.

1) was formed during the Gjalp subglacial eruption which started in the evening of 30 September 1996 under an ice layer of about 600 m thickness [Gudmundsson et al., 1997].
An ice canyon developed which reached a length of about 6 km on 2 October, when the eruption broke through the ice cover and dispersed tephra in a plume which reached a maximum elevation of 9 km.
The analysis shows that the ice motion decreased significantly from January to March as the depression, which was formed during the eruption, filled up.

Comparison of the Gjalp eruption with eruptions in the nearby Grimsvotn caldera, illustrates the effect of ice thickness on the response of the surrounding glacier.
When the ice is thick, as in Gjalp (500-750 m), the ice deforms and flows into the depression created by melting and drainage.
In Gjalp the depressions had a width of several kilometers but the glacier around the depressions was not affected.

Moreover three new names were proposed for the characteristic seamounts of the Molloy Ridge: Gjalp Seamount, Atla Seamount and Eistla Seamount.
These names have been accepted by SCUFN except the following minor modifications, which were due to the fact that SCUFN takes care of giving exact nomenclature.
In the ancient nordic mythology Atla, Eistla and Gjalp are ocean giantesses taking the shape of ocean waves.

When Haustlaung tells how Thjazi falls into the vaferflames kindled around Asgard, it makes use of the words Greipar biðils son sviðnar, "the son of Greip's wooer is scorched".
Thus Thjazi's mother is the giantess Greip, who, according to Skáldskaparmál 26, is a daughter of the giant Geirröður and a sister of Gjalp.
One of these sisters, and, so far as we can see, Greip, is, in Thorsdrapa, called meinsvarans hapts arma farmur, "the embrace of the arms of the perjurous hapt".

Estimating post-eruption ice topography is complicated by the effect of ice motion.
However, interpretation of the radar backscatter images and the interferometric fringes created from the post-eruption pair suggests that the Gjalp volcanic fissure created a 200+ km deep trench within the ice.
Interferometrically derived ice velocities indicate that local ice flow into the Gjalp eruption site and Grimsvotn caldera is now occurring.
