Evilon are a band from Sweden that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays a very melodic mixture of folk, black and death metal and this is a review of their self released 2023 album "A Warriors Way" which will be released in September.
A very epic and symphonic sound starts off the album while also introducing in elements of folk music which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing and the vocals bring in a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in as very melodic style while some songs also add in a small amount of clean playing. Clear pagan vocals are also utilized quite a bit throughout the album along with a couple of tracks also adding in a small amount of clean playing and acoustic guitars, when the music finally speeds up a small amount of blast beats can also be heard and most of the recording sticks to a mid tempo direction.
On this recording Evilon brings in more of a symphonic and melodic mixture of folk, black and death emtal. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Norse and Celtic Mythology themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Evilon and if you are a fan of melodic and symphonic folk, black and death emtal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Yggdrasil" "A Warriors Way" "Galdr" and Valkyria". 8 out of 10.
