Finland's Forgjord have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a raw, melodic and old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Ruumissaarna Pt. 1" which will be released in November by Werewolf Records.
Keyboards and spoken word parts start off the album before going into a heavier musical direction. When tremolo picking is utilized they also give the songs more of a raw feeling while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the music is also very heavily rooted in the classic Finnish style.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and blast beats are also added into the faster sections of the songs.
Some of the tracks also add in a small amount of growls along with a couple of tracks also introducing angry shouts and spoken word parts into the music, clean playing can also be heard briefly. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in Finnish and cover the darker side of man's nature.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Forgjord and if you are a fan of raw, melodic and old school black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Ihmismielli" "Ruumis Enkelton" and "Pedon hetki". 8 out of 10.
