Finland's Qwalen have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a raw mixture of black metal and punk and this is a review of their 2026 album "Veri Virtaa Edelleen" which will be released in march by Time To Kill Records.
A very dark, heavy and melodic sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling and the solos and leads also add in a lot of melody.
Elements of punk are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording while the music also adds in a lot of the old aggression with a more modern take on the genre. Angry shouts can also be heard at along with one song also adding in a brief use of synths, clean playing and acoustic guitars are also added on a couple of the tracks, A couple of songs are also very long and epic in length along with the album also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
On this recording Qwalen continue to expand on the raw mixture of black metal and punk that they introduced on previous releases. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in Finnish and cover the rottenness of human realty and the abolition of kings and gods.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Qwalen and if you are a fan of raw black metal and punk, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Hunnutettu maa" "Kiviä ja luita" and "Kuolleet jumalat". 8 out of 10.
