Sweden's Lifvsleda have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a raw and old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Evangelii härold" which will be released on April 30th by NoEvDia.
A very fast, raw and melodic sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Most of the music is also very heavily rooted in the old school Scandinavian tradition while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams and a couple of the tracks are also very long and epic in length.
Clean playing can also be heard briefly while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style when they are utilized. Martial beats can also be heard on a couple of tracks along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
A couple of songs also adds in a small amount of spoken word parts along with one track also introducing a small amount of keyboards into the music. The production sounds very dark, raw and old school while the lyrics are written in Swedish and cover devil worship and death themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Lifvsleda and if you are a fan of raw and old school black metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Det Perfekta Sinnet" "Griftefard" and "Helige Dod". 8 out of 10.
