Description

Welmoed is a Dutch project by Thijs Mulders (Asklepeion, Misanthropia) that started in 2018. The maiden’s name Welmoed has been chosen because it resembles strength, to strive for, and willpower. Musically, it has not too much boundaries, yet it sets the tone for atmospheric rock / metal most of the time. Influences may vary, from a rock – ish song to blastbeats filled pieces that go hand in hand with tremolo picking shrieking guitars with an icy edge. Sometimes lush and quiet, other moments are filled with ugliness and rage. Thijs wrote the entire material, and to realise the project as a whole, Veerle Kiliaan on vocals (She) stepped in, and so did her counterpart on harsh vocals: Bram Koller (Misanthropia). Hugo de Waal (Misanthropia) joined in on drums. Ask And Embla is an album that lyrically uses themes about mythology, prevail and loss, and metaphoric references to deception through religion and such.
