Nemoreus – ‘Orcunadoras – Chapter two: Wanderer’ (2023)

Posted on 11 August 2023 by Michel16 August 2023

Rating: 8.5/10 Release: 4 August 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 the review for Chapter One, and I’d recommend going back and reading it first. The folky, plaintive, flutey, minor-key metallic goodness continues … Continue reading →

Flor de Loto – ‘Lines of Nasca’ (2023)

Posted on 8 August 2023 by Michel8 August 2023

Rating: 9/10 Release: 16 July 2023 Label: Independent Flor De Loto (“Lotus Flower”) is a five-member Peruvian prog-metal band. Their bandcamp page at the time of writing says they’re “what would have happened if Iron Maiden met Jethro Tull in the ruins of Machu Picchu”, and that’s close, but this … Continue reading →

Valkeat – ‘Fireborn’ (2023)

Posted on 4 August 2023 by Michel4 August 2023

Rating: 8.5/10 Release: 18 August 2023 Label:Reaper Entertainment The Finnish band Valkeat released their second full-length album “Fireborn”. This new full-length, a very complex and well layered one, is a sort of guide that will lead listeners to a new era of Finnish modern folk and symphonic metal, succeeding quite … Continue reading →

Finsterforst – ‘Jenseits’ (2023)

Posted on 29 July 2023 by Michel29 July 2023

Rating: 7/10 Release: 8 Septerber 2023 Label: AOP Records Finsterforst is a six-member German folk metal band, and Jenseits (“Beyond”) is their eighth album and 3rd EP. There are two guest musicians who brought their voices and instruments into the booth, too. All-in-all, it’s a strange little beast: an EP-length … Continue reading →

Lombolo – ‘H​ä​r och d​ä​r’ (2023)

Posted on 19 July 2023 by Michel19 July 2023

Rating: 9/10 Release: 16 August 2023 Label: Independent Lombolo is a Swedish folk metal trio and “Här och Där” (“Here and There” but way more fun to say) is their second full-length album. ‘Trio’ is a bit misleading because there are guest appearances from Anchorsmashed, Rietas, and Amadeus Kamsvåg. Some … Continue reading →

Yarga – ‘Kogda na nebe zhivot solntse’ (2023)

Posted on 19 July 2023 by Michel19 July 2023

Rating: 8.5/10 Release: 1 July 2023 Label: Independent Yarga is a young folk pagan metal band that combines elements of popular Russian folklore and a heavy, powerful sound. With their songs, the band brings the forgotten epoch in the life of Ancient Russia, using both historical facts and folk tales … Continue reading →

Znich – ‘Maci’ (2023)

Posted on 17 July 2023 by Michel17 July 2023

Rating: 6.5/10 Release:6 June 2023 Label: Independent Amongst all Slavic folk/pagan metal bands worth being included in the genre’s history, the name Znich cannot be forgotten. It is 27 years they’ve been active in the scene, with 5 full-lengths, a bunch of EPs and solos and gigs amongst Belarus and … Continue reading →

Adarvirog – ‘Čornaje Sonca’ (2023)

Posted on 13 July 2023 by Michel13 July 2023

Rating: 8/10 Release: 4 August 2023 Label:Independent Adarvirog is a huge, eight-piece Belarusian dark folk metal band. I never get tired of Eastern Europe’s folk metal contributions, and Adarvirog’s second album exceeds expectations. Čornaje Sonca (“Blacker than the Sun”) follows closely in form to 2017’s Край паданняў (“Edge of Traditions”). … Continue reading →

Trollwald – ‘Trollwald’ (2023)

Posted on 8 July 2023 by Michel8 July 2023

Rating: 9/10 Release: 2 June 2023 Label: Independent This review took me longer than I expected for multiple reasons. Firstly because it’s Trollwald and at times I still can’t believe to have this very very long-awaited album in front of me. Secondly, the sound of this album is very different … Continue reading →

Ūkanose – ‘Šiaurum Vėjum’ (2023)

Rating: 9.5/10 Release: 14 April 2023 Label: Dangus The Lithuanian band Ūkanose, born in 2012, released after a long time an album that collected nine songs that the band often performed live, but that had never been put on a record. The concept of the band was born after a … Continue reading →
