Frostmoon - Tordenkrig

Posted on Saturday, April 30, 2011

This is a two-piece band hailing from the kingdom of endless Black Metal, Norway. This CD is actually quite a mixed bag as it compiles tracks from the Tordenkrig 7-inch, a split 7-inch with Ork, unreleased material and advanced tracks from their forthcoming full-length album. To describe the style of this band, imagine Isengard (the Folk elements), Darkthrone (the Black Metal parts) and Hammerheart-era Bathory (the atmosphere) all mixed together. The 7-inch tracks don’t have the best sound quality in the world, but considering that nobody pays for quality recording on a 7-inch except for Moribund Cult Black Priest Odin, that is completely understandable. The guitars were a bit on the thin side up until the tracks for the forthcoming album kicked in. These have a much thicker guitar sound and the keyboards are less prominent than the older material. The songs from the 7-inches were good, but I think the advanced tracks for the album are leagues ahead of the older stuff.
