Graveland - Creed of Iron
This is the latest album by Poland’s favorite Nazi, Rob Darken, and his Black Metal terror, Graveland. Out of all the Nazi Black Metal bands out there (Nokturnal Mortem, Thor’s Hammer, Thunderbolt, Absurd and, of course, Burzum - to name a few), Graveland is arguably the most talented. Burzum might be recognized by more people, but I seriously think that Graveland has better songs. This latest album is influenced by the quasi-Asatru/Wotansvolk manifesto of the same name, though this influence only comes through in the lyrics. Musically, this is a continuation of Immortal Pride and Lord Wind’s latest album, Heralds of Fight. There is still a militaristic vibe running through the songs, though not to the same degree as Lord Wind. The Slavic Folk element is very powerful, showing up in both the riffs and in the keyboard parts, and there is still a hint of Hammerheart-era Bathory in the mix. This band has come a long way from their Emperor-worshipping beginnings and if Epic Black Metal is your cup of tea, you won’t be wasting your money here.
