Kveldstimer are a duo from the United States that plays a very raw and old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2024 demo "Scripture Of The Woods" which will b e released on Halloween by Alte Seelen.
Dark soundscapes and synths start off the album along with some bass guitars in the background before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly grim black metal screams and the music is very heavily rooted in t he 90's Nordic style.
Most of the music sticks to a faster direction mixed in with some mid tempo sections while the album also has its atmospheric moments. Clear singing and chants can also be heard on a couple of songs along with all of the riffing being done on power chords and the whole album also avoids the use of any solos or leads.
Kveldstimer plays a style of black metal that is very atmospheric, raw and old school in the 90's Nordic tradition. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Nature, Forests and Paganism themes.
In my opinion Kveldstimer are a very great sounding raw, atmospheric and old school black emtal duo and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this demo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Folk of The Blossoming Sky" and "Fiendish Lore". 8 out of 10.
