Eveale are an international duo with members from the United States and the United Kingdom that has had music reviewed before in this zine and on this recording goes for a very melodic and old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2026 album "Enter The Woodland Realm" which will be released in May as a joint effort between Hypaethral Records and Fiadh Productions.
Nature sounds start off the album along with some acoustic guitars a few seconds later before going into more of a heavier direction. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in a very melodic style while the faster sections of the songs also add in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling.
Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the music is very heavily rooted in the old school era of the genre. Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing along with the songs also bringing in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Clear singing is added on a couple of tracks as well as some spoken words also being used briefly, clean playing is also added into certain sections of the recording.
On this recording Eveale brings out a very melodic, aggressive and old school style of black metal. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover nature, folklore, cycles of death and rebirth.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Eveale and if you are a fan of melodic and old school black metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Lament Of The Dryads" "The Ritual" and "Enter The Woodland Realm". 8 out of 10.
