Description

2020 press on grey and black splatter vinyl with printed innersleeve. Limited 200 copies

Arckanum, the one man band from Mora, opens the album with a folk guitar riff which soon settles in among the other instruments creating a great track of mid-paced blackness. This is simple old-school black metal at it’s best with well executed a varying riff-structure climbing and descending in an a seamless flow over rumbling double bass. The echo effects used on the vocals on the three first albums are gone and though they were really enjoyable and fitting there I do not miss them here; Shamaatae’s raspy voice is perfect for reciting the dark poems of which the lyrics mainly consist of. He still uses the old Swedish language as it was spoken a thousand years ago but the dark nature romanticism is toned down and the nature ambience is completely gone. It’s musically similar to the two previous EPs Boka Vm Kaos and Kosmos Wardhin Dræpas Om Sin and the five tracks are basically pretty alike (except for Spitaelsker) in structure but offers some great riffing and adept musicianship and thus never gets boring.

Track list:
1. Haexhammar
2. Eldkniver
3. Aetergap
4. Frana-anti cosmic version
5. Spitaelsker
