Ulverhydre are a band from Norway that plays an old school from of black metal and this is a review of their 2025 album "Dødsdømt" which will be released on Halloween by Solistitium Records.
A very dark, heavy and melodic sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly grim yet high pitched sounding black metal screams. The solos and leads also add in decent amount of melody along with all of the musical instruments on the recording also h aving a very powerful sound to them.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling. A couple of the tracks are also long and epic in length along with the album being very heavily rooted in the mid 90's to early 2000's Nordic tradition, spoken words can also b e heard on a few tracks and the whole album sticks to a heavier direction.
Ulverhydre plays a style of black metal that is very aggressive and old school sounding in the classic Nordic tradition. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in Norwegian and cover the darker side of history.
In my opinion Ulverhydre are a very great sounding old school black metal band and f you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Merraflåer" "Barnedrap" and "Rekviem'. 8 out of 10.
