Sweden's Seid have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a viking form of black metal and this is a review of their 2026 album "Dystopolis" which will be released in December by ATMF.
A very heavy yet melodic sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats can b e heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling and atmospheric sounding synths can also be heard at times.
All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them while the album also adds in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with some tracks also adding in a small amount of clear singing, clean playing can also be heard at times and one song is also an instrumental.
On this recording Seid brings out a very raw and atmospheric style of viking black metal. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover values traditionally associated with the VIkign Ethos.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Seid and if you are a fan of raw and atmospheric viking black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Maggots Crawling Through The Bar" "DystoplisPart 1" and "Steller Remnant". 8 out of 10.
