Out of Sweden comes this Black Metal horde. On this release we are presented with eight tracks of wellplayed mid-paced to fast melodic Black Metal, including an intro. This does sound very Swedish, especially the guitar harmonies, but there is a heavyness to it that makes this stand out a bit more. The guitars remind me slightly of Dissection, and also of Thornium, Dark Funeral and early Necrophobic, among others. This reminds me of the '90ies wave of Death-/Black Metal.
The vocals are slightly in the back here, and sounding a bit like a Death Metal version of Varg Vikernes' vocals. Less shrieking, and more guttural.
The soundquality is slightly muffled, and somewhat chaotic, but you still hear the instruments quite clearly. The focus is on the guitars, with the drums being a bit in the back of the mix. This is well above average, and definitely worth checking out!
Standout tracks are "Ritual Through Holy Blood", "Death Redemption" and "Lies of the Deceiver".
