This is a review of another recording from Erntegang that continues his mixture of industrial and neo folk and this is a review of his self released 2015 ep "Hvel".
A very dark and ritualistic sound starts off the ep before the acoustic guitars and folk instruments kick in along with some spoken word parts and after the intro distorted drones are added into the music and also gives the songs more of an atmospheric touch and the drum beatsd also gives the music more of a tribal and shamanistic feeling.
When bass guitars are utilized they give the songs more of an industrial feeling while the music is mostly rooted in neo folk and you can also hear whispers in certain sections of the recording and after awhile clean singing vocals are used a lot more in some parts of the songs.
Erntegang continues his mixture of industrial and neo folk from the previous recording while also getting more ritualistic and adding in more folk instruments this time around, the production sounds very powerful for being a self released recording while the lyrics cover Norse Paganism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Erntegang and if you are a fan of neo folk and industrial, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Death Of Balder" and "Nidstong". 8 out of 10.
