:BOLVERK: are a band from Norway that plays a very aggressive and melodic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Uaar" which will b e released on May 27th by WormHoleDeath Records.
A very heavy and aggressive sound starts off the album while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the music more of a raw feeling.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while death metal growls can also be heard at times. The riffs also add in a decent amount of melody along with a great portion of the tracks also being long and epic in length and spoken word parts can also be heard in some parts of the album.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a great amount of brutality as well as a later track also adding in a brief use of clean playing and as the album progresses a brief use of clear vocals can also b e heard. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover pestilence, death and anti Christianity themes.
In my opinion :BOLVERK: are a very great sounding aggressive and melodic black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Death The Whore" "Sectarian Bloodshed" and "From The Depths". 8 out of 10.
