I have seen KAMPFAR official countless times over the years in many different countries, but at BlekkMetal Festival they gave what I would consider to be their greatest ever show. I feel privileged to have attended.
Kampfar At Blekk Metal Festival

Sound Of The Day : Vreid
Vreid have conquered once again. Their latest album Sólverv is a masterpiece, though I expected nothing less. They're a band who have consistently provided outfuckingstanding black metal since their founding day in 2004. The album's title track Sólverv is probably my favourite song, and it has a powerful video to accompany it, made in collaboration… Continue reading Sound Of The Day : Vreid
Sound Of The Day : Forteresse
It's been a long while since I've listened to Forteresse, so decided to spend some time this evening with their phenomenal 2011 album Crépuscule d'Octobre.
New Video From K.F.R.
Are you ready to be deeply, and I mean really fucking deeply unnerved? I'm taking unnerved Begotten level here... Yeah? Then I suggest you pop the lights off and watch the new video from French black metal project K.F.R. Directed and edited by Benjamin Champenois and Maxime Taccardi, this is a work of dark genius.
Sound Of The Day : Hermóðr
Honestly, Hermóðr might possibly be one of my favourite projects of all time. Everything, and I really do mean everything that emerges from this project is never short of perfect. The most recent offering is a haunting single entitled The Scent of Autumn.
Sound Of The Day : Grimirg
I've been a fan of the Finnish black/folk/doom project Wyrd for a long time, and was stoked to discover that vocalist Grim 666 has a very promising funeral doom/ambient side project called Grimirg. Click on the video below to hear the first track from the debut album MMXV-I.
Sound Of The Day : Grift
I've lost count of the amount of times I've listened to Svältorna from Swedish black metal solo project Grift's latest album Syner. The song and it's accompanying video are both masterpieces.
Sound Of The Day : Cosmic Church
Enjoying the new EP Vigilia from Finnish black metal project Cosmic Church.
Sound Of The Day : Hermóðr
Hermóðr is a band which I have been listening to on a daily basis for quite some time now. The ever prolific Rafn is the solo member behind the Swedish atmospheric black metal project. If you listen to one thing today, make it Frostfödd from his 2014 album Vinter.
Sound Of The Day : Lustre
I absolutely adore the new single Nestle Within from the upcoming Lustre album, set for release by Nordvis in 2016.
