Hakla are a duo from Poland that plays an old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2025 album "Piesni Korica" which was released by Via Nocturna.
Synths start off the album and also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling.
Most of the music is also very heavily rooted in the old school era of the genre while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with one track also adding in a brief use of clear singing, all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Hakla plays a style of black metal that is very raw and old school in the 90's Scandinavian tradition. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in Polish and cover the fall of man, the decay of values and the end of everything familiar.
In my opinion Hakla are a very great sounding old school black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Pieśni końca" "Na własne podobieństwo" and "Szli tak jakby zwyciężyli". 8 out of 10.
