Wolcensmen are a solo project from the United Kingdom that plays neo-folk music and this is a review of his 2016 album "Songs From The Fyrgen" which will b e re-issued on November 30, 2018 by Indie Recordings.
Acoustic guitars start off the album which also bring in a good mixture of finger picking and full chords and also bring in elements of folk music while the clean vocals gives the songs more of a pagan atmosphere along with some stringed instruments also being utilized at times.
Synths are also added on some of the tracks while some of the songs are very long and epic in length along with some percussion also being added into certain sections of the recording as well as some neo-classical touches also being added into the music at times and one of the songs is an instrumental.
Wolcensmen plays a style of neo-folk that also adds in some influences of pagan and black metal to create a sound of his own, the production sounds very dark while the lyrics cover old European spirituality themes.
In my opinion Wolcensmen are a very great sounding neo-folk solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Fyre-Bough" ''Neath A Wreath Of Furs" adn "The Bekens Are aliht". 8/5 out of 10.
