Tyler C one of my first purchases upon returning to bandcamp after years away, absolutely amazing album from start to finish. Favorite track: Hveðrungs Mær.

Merkwyrd Awesome tracks! Finally something new. I bought their whole discography several years ago. Their new record is a different approach than their older records. Even though they seem to promote this as something out of bounds of regular Black metal, I think they are more or less walking towards a path Dimmu Borgir took. I, personally, think their older stuff was more uncommon BM and this record is more mediocre, but there are still some decent songs. But non the less it's decent BM with some atmospheric riffing. Awesome! Favorite track: Krig.

about

"Väsen" is the third album from Grá and it marks a new era. Free from the concept of the previous releases, Grá returns with an album more varied than ever and with the will to explore outside the borders of the narrow-minded so called black metal scene where most seem to have forgotten to include the part that makes it BLACK.

In a time where many bands want to be compared with their idols, Grá walk a different path where exploration and breaking new grounds are the keystones. That is the greatest tribute to the past, to walk your own path and be a leader, not a follower of trends.
