Their side of the split starts out with a very heavy and atmospheric sound 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 grim sounding black metal screams mixed in with a few shouts while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style.
Both of the tracks are also very long and epic in length and also adds in some synths and folk instruments along with a brief use of whispers and spoken words, clean playing can also be heard briefly, clear singing is also added on the second track. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover paganism and nature themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Celtefog and if you a re a fan of atmospheric pagan black metal, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "The Ivy Path".
