Frontschwein are a band from Poland that plays a very raw and old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2025 album "Faces Of War" which was released by old Temple.
War samples start off the album 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 high pitched black metal screams while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody and most of the music is heavily rooted in the old school era.
Growls can also be heard at times while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with some spoken word samples also being added at times, some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length as well as some death metal growls also being utilized briefly.
Frontschwein plays a style of black metal that is very fast, raw and old school in the mid 90's tradition. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover are based on real and historical events and cover war, nihilism and hatred themes.
In my opinion Frontschwin are a very great sounding raw 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 "Frozen Fortess 1942' "101. Panzer-Abteilung" and "The Star Of Africa". 8 out of 10.
