Nattmann are a band from Norway that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays an old school form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2023 ep "Udaad".
Drum b eats and spoken word parts start off the ep before the bass guitars and heavy riffs start to kick in. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the faster sections of t he songs also add in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling.
Vocals are mostly grim sounding black emtal screams while the music is also very heavily rooted in the classic Nordic style. Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, keyboards can also be heard briefly and the guitar leads are also done in a very melodic style, clear singing is also added on the closing track.
On this recording Nattman remains true to the old school style of black metal that they have established on previous releases. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in Norwegian and cover society, morality and executions from t he 1600's to 1800's.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Nattmann and if you are a fan of old school black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Nattmann". 8 OUT OF 10.
