Norway's Nordjevel has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a fast and aggressive style of black metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Gnavhol" which will be released in September by Indie Recordings.
The sounds of war, chaos and destruction start off the album before going into a very fast and brutal direction which also utilizes a great amount of blast beats. Vocals a re mostly high pitched black emtal s creams while the tremolo picking in the faster sections of the songs also gives the music more of a raw feeling.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark yet melodic style along with some spoken word parts also being utilized on a couple of songs.
The music also h as its technical moments along with some of the tracks also being very long and epic in length as well as one song also introducing growls and touches of death metal into the music and as the album progresses a brief use of clean playing can also be heard. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Satanism, Anti Christianity, Occultism, Esotericism, War and Destruction themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Nordjevel and if you are a fan of fast and aggressive black metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS ICNLUDE "Of Rats And men" "Satan's Manifest" "Antichrist Flesh" and "Endritual". 8 out of 10.
