Enchanted Forest are a band from Portugal that plays an old school form of pagan black metal and this is a review of their self released 2025 demo.
A very epic sounding intro starts off the ep along with some drum beats and synths before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and the first 3 tracks are also Gorgoroth covers.
Throughout the demo you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while all of the tracks also add in a different vocalist. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with some of the riffing also adding in a small amount of melody, synths also return on later tracks and the closing track is a Dissection cover which also adds in some whispered vocals.
On this recording Enchanted Forest takes some cover songs and adds their own style of pagan black metal to the classic songs. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover paganism themes.
In my opinion Enchanted Forest are a very great sounding old school pagan black metal b and and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should c heck out this demo. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Huldrelokk". 8 out of 10.
