Bretwaldas Of Heathen Doom are a duo from the United Kingdom that has had music reviewed before in this zine and on this recording plays a mixture of black, doom, heavy metal and crust and this is a review of their 2025 album "Seven Bloodie Ramparts" which was released by Caligari Records.
Fast tremolo picking starts off the album while also bringing in elements of black metal before going into more of a crust influenced direction. Elements of doom metal a re also added into the slower sections of the songs while the vocals bring in a mixture of t he first wave era and Bathory's pagan era.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads also being in more of a melodic traditional metal style. A lot of the music is very heavily rooted in the 90's era as well as remaining very modern at the same along with some clean playing also being added into certain sections of the album
\
A couple of tracks are also long and epic in length and most of the recording sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction, all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and when the music finally speeds up a small amount of blast b eats can also be heard. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Heathenism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Bretwaldas Of Heathen Doom and if you are a fan of black, doom, heavy metal and crust, you should check out this duo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Welcome The Rider" "Grey Wolf" and "Smite". 8 out of 10.
