Krønike I, by DøDSKVAD

Krønike I

by DøDSKVAD

supported by

Lance Connett tripped-out and obscure black death with heavy metal influences. this is so good!

Presse-purée This band does not seem really about seeking to be the most violent, brutal, dark, or whatsoever... this, is all about songwriting... stunning songwriting !
I also adore the production, very early 90s. The bass guitar is teeming, gurgling all the way, absolutely awesome.
Each of those 3 tracks explores a part of what seems a large spectrum that Dodskvad intend to evolve in, as there's some "Hello Bolt Thrower", or "Hello King Crimson" parts, just to name a few.
Just can't wait for Kronike II !

about

Hailing from Norway, Dødskvad is a project of E.R. (Desolation Realm) with members from Obliteration and Sovereign. Wasting no time, songs were written in the spring of 2019, and then recorded at Forråtnelsens Krypt in the fall. Dødskvad then released this first recording, Krønike I, digitally in early 2020.

Dødskvad's sound is obscure and OLD. With influences primarily being old Death, old Bolt Thrower, Obituary, Infester, and Resurrection as well as old heavy metal and synth music, what results on Krønike I is strangely familiar yet foreign simultaneously, its simplicity of design understated yet bountifully provocative. Like so much weird 'n' twisted metal of the past, Dødskvad reveal their secrets slowly and subtly; their eerily bubbling cauldron seems to simmer endlessly, never overflowing but likewise never short on strange spices and other far-darker ingredients. And with the lyrics following a common concept based on equal parts fantasy, Norwegian history, and mythology, Krønike I's otherworldly aspect deepens ever more...

Highly recommended for fans of Cultes Des Ghoules, Faustcoven, Ride For Revenge, Sacriphyx, Oksennus, Cauldron Black Ram, and all freaks into tripped-out black/death sounds: head into the hinterlands of the obscure with Dødskvad!

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
