Celtefog are a band from Greece that plays a pagan form of black metal and this is a review of their 2015 ep "Three Nights In The Mediterranean Sea" which was released by Old Graves Productions.
Nature sounds start off the ep along with some whispered vocals a few seconds later and after a few seconds ambient sounds are added onto the recording which also leads up to melodic guitar leads and blast beats that also takes the music into a heavier direction as well as introducing high pitched black metal screams onto the recording.
All of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them and both of the songs use a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and the music also gets very atmospheric at times and brings in a brief use of clean playing and the faster sections also have a raw edge to them at times and they close the recording with a cover of Windir's "Svartesmeden Og Lundamystrollet" which also brings in a few seconds of clean singing pagan vocals.
Celtefog plays a style of pagan metal that is very epic, melodic and atmospheric sounding as well as displaying a great amount of talent and skill on both of the tracks, the production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Paganism, Nature, Winter and Revenge themes.
In my opinion Celtefog are a very great sounding pagan black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Three Nights In The Mediterranean Sea". 8 out of 10.
