Valhalore are a band from Australia that plays a very epic and symphonic form of folk metal with elements of melodic death and power metal and this is a review of their 2025 album "Beyond The Stars" which will be released on April 11th by ROAR.
Epic sounding keyboards and folk instruments start off the album which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing while the music also has its symphonic moments along with the harsh vocals being mostly death metal growls.
Clear pagan vocals which also mixes in a touch of power metal are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording. When guitar solos and leads are added into the music they are also done in a very melodic style along with some of the tracks also adding in a small amount of acoustic guitars.
All of the musical instruments on the album also have a very powerful sound to them along with the screams also adding in elements of black metal when they are utilized, when the music speeds up on a couple of tracks a small amount of blast beats can also be heard and female vocals are also added one song. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover adventures, death, battles and Vikings.
In my opinion Valhalore are a very great sounding epic and symphonic folk metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Edge Of Forever" "Wayfinder" "Horizon" and "A Walk Among Stars'. 8 out of 10.
