Jarl are a band from Germany that plays a very old school and melodic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Trümmerfestung" which will be released in December by Trollzorn Records.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the solos and leads are done in a very melodic style. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the vocals being mostly high pitched black metal screams and the riffs also add in a lot of melody.
When the music speeds up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling. A lot of the album is also very heavily rooted in the mid 90's era along with the album also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
A couple of tracks also adds in some deeper harsh vocals that are more close to death metal and the whole album also sticks to a heavier direction as well as a couple of songs also being very long and epic in length. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in German and cover dark themes.
In my opinion Jarl are a very great sounding melodic and old school black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Levitation" "Schein" and "Alchemie'. 8 out of 10.
