Wulfgar are a band from Sweden that plays a melodic mixture of Viking, black and death metal along with a musical style that they refer to as 'Midgardian Metal' and this is a review of their 2021 album "From The Ashes" which will be released in August by Downfall Records.
Heavy yet melodic riffing starts off the album while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. Vocals are mostyl death metal growls along with the music also being very heavily rooted in the Swedish style along with the screams also adding in elements of black metal when they are utilized.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style while synths can also be heard on some of the tracks. Most of the music also sticks to more of a mid tempo direction along with the songs also adding in a small amount of blast beats when t he music finally speeds up.
Wulgar plays a musical style that takes the melodic styles of black, death and Viking metal and mix them together to create a very aggressive sounding recording. The production sounds very old school while the lyrics cover Vikings And Mythology themes.
In my opinion Wulfgar are a very great sounding melodic mixture of Viking, black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "From The Ashes' "Where Dark Elves Dwell" "With Gods in Your Hearts" and "In Valhalla". 8 out of 10.
