Sweden's solo project Hädangången has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a very raw, atmospheric and nature orientated form of black metal and this is a review of his self released 2025 album "Vädjan".
Nature sounds start off the album before going into a heavier direction while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the vocals being mostly angry sounding black emtal screams and blast b eats are added into the faster sections of the recording.
When tremolo picking is added into the fast riffing they also give the music more of a raw feeling while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. At times the album also gets very atmospheric sounding , when guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with some tracks also adding in a small amount of synths, whispers, spoken words and clean playing and there are also a few instrumentals.
On this recording Hädangången continues to expand on the raw and atmospheric style of black metal that he has introduced on previous releases. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in Swedish and cover 18th and 19th century nature-romanticism, death and desolation themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Hädangången and if you are a fan of raw and atmospheric black metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Dekadens" and "Jordens sista suck". 8 out of 10.
