This is the final review of a recording from Australia/U.S.A's Ironwood which shows the music going for a progressive mixture of folk and black metal and the single was self released in 2020 and called "Aletheia Contra Veritas".
Clean playing starts off the single before going into a heavier direction while t he riffs also add in a lot of melody. When the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can b e heard along with the vocals being a mixture of clear pagan singing and high pitched black metal screams and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout the opening track you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the music also has its progressive moments and the second track is an acoustic version of the first song.
On this recording Ironwood returned to a lot of their black metal roots as well as continuing to expand on the progressive folk metal direction of previous releases. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover heathen Traditions.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from ironwood and if you are a fan of progressive folk metal, you should check out this single. 8 out of 10.
