Aedalgard are an international duo with members from Russia and the United States that plays a very atmospheric form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2025 album "Natteglimt".
A very heavy and melodic sound starts off the album while atmospheric sounding synths are also mixed in with the heavier sections of the songs. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with some of the tracks also adding in a small amount of clean playing and spoken words are also used at times.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. When the music speeds up on a couple of songs a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling, a couple of tracks are also instrumentals.
Aedalgard plays a style of black metal that is very atmospheric sounding and mixes in both modern and old school touches. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover nature, winter and darkness themes.
In my opinion Aedelgard are a very great sounding atmospheric black metal duo and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "I" and "V". 8 out of 10.
