Thrudvangar are a band from Germany that plays viking/black metal with atmospheric and melodic elements and this is a review of their 2013 album "Tiwaz" which was released by Massacre Records.
Drums range from slow, mid paced to fast playing with some blast beats being utilized at times, while the bass playing has a very strong and powerful sound with heavy riffing that dominates throughout the recording.
Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast viking/black metal riffs that utilize some melody and thrash influences in the riffing, while the lead guitars are very melodic sounding viking metal guitar solos and leads, as for the acoustic guitars when they are utilized use finger picking and full chords to add medieval elements to the album.
Vocals range from grim sounding black metal screams to deep death metal growls along with a brief use of spoken word parts in addition there is a brief use of clean singing being utilized on one song, while the lyrics are written in German and cover Nordic Paganism and Mythology, as for the production it has a very strong, powerful, heavy and professional sound where you can hear all of the musical instruments that are present on this recording.
In my opinion Thrudvanger are a very great sounding viking/black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Tiwaz" "Frei" "Brueder" and "Abschied". RECOMMENDED BUY.
