The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74
Fantasque & Fantastique !
I love RandomWalk. I cannot think of any other group sounding like them. The closest you could get is a combination of Divercia, Oceans of Sadness, Mercenary and fresh garlic.
Well, while randomly starting the album, I envisioned an extreme version of RandomWalk, and my heart beat faster.
I drink decaf' coffee.
Zornheym may not know any of the cited groups. Like them, they created a unique flavour of metal. unidual
Officially got too impatient for their new album Seventh Secular Crusade to be available here on bandcamp so hoping this album plus the couple new albums (to me) I recently bought will keep distracted enough until I can buy that too.
Swedish Melodic Black Metal just has that sound. Glad my Dissection and Sacramentum albums finally have some company. ChaosFury
