Norrskold are a band from Sweden that plays a very atmospheric mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their self released 2022 album "Prisma Aeternus" which will be released in November.
A very fast, aggressive and melodic sound starts off the album along with a great amount of blast b eats. Vocals are a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls while the music is very heavily rooted in the classic Swedish style and all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. When classical guitars are utilized they also bring in elements of folk music along with some tracks also adding in clean playing and atmospheric sounding synths, one track also introduces spoken word parts onto the recording..
Norrskold plays a musical style that takes the melodic and atmospheric forms of black and death metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while th e lyrics are a concept album that cover a dystopian observation of the rise and fall of mankind in relation to the evolution and destruction of the earth.
In my opinion Norrskold are a very great sounding atmospheric and melodic mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Witness The Illusion" "Perfection Into Solitude" "Indifference" and "Stars To Reside". 8 out of 10.
