VALKYRJA

Release Year: 2021
Artist Origin: SWE
Style: devastating intense dramatic black metal

absolutely devoted to Scandinavian tradition and stuck to Necromorbus studio production, Valkyrja come back with a sophomore ten tracker [2010], catching on gruesome religious black metal files once again - brute and fierce approach at the same time gives birth to eerie penetrating harmonies, splitting their straightforward and epic directions in equal parts; sharp and infectious sound makes it the black metal for those trying to get into the style, but it does not make songs like The Womb of Disease and Catharsis [Contaminate the Earth] inferior or predictable; recent British digipak version with a remastered sound, sixteen page booklet and two extra live tracks from 2014 marks tenth year anniversary of the album
