Geatkihaukr are a solo project from Finland that plays a very raw and old school form of black metal and this is a review of their self titled and self released 2021 demo.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the demo while the music is also very heavily rooted in the early 90's era. 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 and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Vocals are mostly angry sounding black metal screams while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. A small amount of melody can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing along with one track also adding in some early 20th style keyboards before returning back to a heavier direction.
Geatkihaukr plays a style of black metal that is very raw and old school in the early 90's tradition. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in Finnish and cover runes, war, violence, death, nature, hate, love, Satanism and Ancestry themes.
In my opinion Geatkihaukr are a very great sounding raw and old school black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this demo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Susirajan Takaa" and "Kaamoksen Kutus". 8 out of 10.
