Dødskvad are a b and from Norway that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays a very tripped out form of blackened death metal and this is a review of their 2022 ep "Krønike II" which will be released on January 20th by Caligari Records.
A very dark and heavy yet 90's influenced sound starts off the ep while you can also h ear all of the musical instruments that are present on the recording. At times the music also gets very atmospheric sounding along with the music being mostly death emtal growls as well as some black metal screams also being done at times.
Dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads remains true to an old school style. When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can also be heard along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Clean playing and synths can also be heard in some parts of the recording along with some spoken word parts also being utilized briefly and a couple of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. The production sounds very old school while the lyrics are written in Norwegian and cover Norse mythology themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Dødskvad and if you are a fan of old school and atmospheric blackened death emtal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE " Etterlatt Til Ulver" and "Verdenstreets Rot". 8 out of 10.
