Ereb Altor - Pagan Doom/Viking Metal

MFJ · March 20th, 2005, 10:28 AM

I found these guys while just randomly fucking around on Metal-Archives. They play a pretty interesting mix of Doom and Viking Metal. At times I'm even reminded of Nordland-era Bathory and Lunar Strain-era In Flames. There are some good folk-ish melodies and the clean vocals are very nice. Their demo "Awakening" is available in its entirety on their site-

Enjoy!

WMA is supremely annoying.

Erik · March 20th, 2005, 10:39 AM

But this officially FUCKING RULES

MFJ · March 20th, 2005, 10:41 AM

Yeah, it really really does. This shit is amazing, I just finished the demo and I'm going around for another run. Just wish it was mp3...

Also check out Fejd. They are a traditional swedish folk group. They are listed as Folk-Metal, but there are infact no electric guitars. It's more like kick-ass folk rock that makes you want to get hosed and jam. Great, great stuff.

www.fejd.se

(oh, and both of their demos are for download on the site. I reccomend "I en tid som var...")

feel free to keep tossing out bands like this for us who are too lazy

MFJ · March 20th, 2005, 01:02 PM

Don't worry, there's more to come.

my comments:

Ereb Altor: "Winter Wonderland" was good but not that great really, The Awakening sounds a little more promising

Fejd: I know I've heard these guys before, but you've re-awakened my interest and now I must contact them and buy a copy of Huldran with the other one as a bonus.

Ereb Altor sounded really, REALLY boring to me. nothing too special at all. i've already forgotten pretty much all of it. Fejd on the other hand... BOING!
