Odraedir – ‘Vengeance’ (2023)

Posted on 18 November 2023 by Michel18 November 2023

Rating: 9/10 Release: 27 October 2023 Label: Independent Odraedir is a five-member epic folk metal band from the Czech Republic, and “Vengeance” is their second album– the first one of this decade. It’s a banger, and it’s far more polished and professional than 2017’s Legends of the Dark Times. It … Continue reading →

Nemoreus ‘Orcunadoras – Chapter three: Rogue’ (EP 2023)

Rating: 8.5/10 Release: 20 October 2023 Label: Running Wild Productions Nemoreus is a six-member Austrian folk-metal band who probably don’t even need this amount of introduction. I wrote reviews for chapters one and two, and I’d recommend going back and reading them first. So, two points make a line and … Continue reading →

Olde Throne – ‘In The Land of Ghosts’ (2023)

Posted on 18 October 2023 by Michel18 October 2023

Rating: 8.6/10 Release: 31 March 2023 Label: Naturmacht Productions New Zealand’s Olde Throne brings us “In the Land of Ghosts” as their latest release. The album is everything Black Metal should be. It has the rawness, heaviness and aggression of pure Black Metal and sacrifices none of it to create … Continue reading →

Vansind – ‘Mørket’ (2023)

Rating: 8/10 Release: 17 November 2023 Label: Mighty Music Vansind is a six-member Danish folk metal band and Mørket (“The Darkness”) is their first full-length album.

Rating: 8/10 Release: 29 September 2023 Label: Independent / Bandcamp Ilmarinen is a big, six-member Dutch folk metal band in a traditional sense, and “Gold” is a very short, two-song EP.
