Fejd – ‘Eifur’ (2010)
Rating: 8/10
Release: 29 October 2010
Label: Napalm Records
Nice, a new album of the Swedish Fejd, the band made impression with the EP “Eld” and the full length album Storm.
Although the band does not disappoint here, the album is not as strong as its two predecessors. But a strong album on the whole. Fejd nears traditional Swedish folk music much more with their sound, as we are used to of many bands. It’s very nice to hear this again in all their songs, with “Aring,” “Arv” and “Yggdrasil” for example, these tracks are again absolute anthems, I would sing them along loud, if it don’t were for my bad Swedish. A big difference with the previous albums, the songs on ‘Eifur’ are of a little more cheerful nature. The previous albums are full of traditional Swedish folk with melancholy vocals. Something I miss in this album here and there, but for the fans this album is an absolute must.
