Noitasapatti are a band from Finland that plays a very epic and old school form of black metal with elements of viking, doom, death metal and progressive rock and this is a review of their 2024 album "Sankarin matka" which will be released on November 29th by Inverse Records.
Clean playing starts off the album before going into more of a heavier and melodic direction while t he keyboards also give the music more of an atmospheric feeling. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams which also adds in a depressive touch and the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style.
Angry shouts and death metal growls can also be heard at times while the music is also very heavily rooted in the mid 90's era. At times the music also gets very progressive sounding along with the slower sections of the songs also bringing in elements of doom metal and the faster sections of the album also adds in a decent amount of blast beats.
When tremolo picking is added into the fast riffing they also give the songs more of a raw feeling along with some spoken word parts also being utilized briefly. Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length as well as the recording also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in Finnish and is a concept album based upon indescribable horrors alternating between dream and reality.
In my Noitasapatti are a very great sounding epic and old school black metal b and with elements of viking, doom, death metal and progressive rock and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Tuhatkasvoinen" "Henkein pollulla" and "Tahtivaeltaja". 8 out of 10.
