"allegretto-to-presto"
that's like... 138 bpm shifts (!!!)

lol

haha, i meant that not to be taken that literally austin, just a comparison in the tempo change. i was always taught that those terms are relative

Awesome review Jared this band rules. However I wouldn't necessarily call them 'melodic black metal' but black metal that is melodic.

thanks brandon, and i can see why you would say that. I'll see what i can do

I mean it's not really a big deal, just me being nit-picky. I wouldn't change your review or anything because 'melodic black metal' would probably be a good tag to get some ppl interested in listening to this

"haha, i meant that not to be taken that literally austin, just a comparison in the tempo change. i was always taught that those terms are relative"

well then

it's sort of a fine line with taake, I guess, but i think it's worth changing just so people won't get the wrong idea.

Liking this so far

this is the only release by this nigga that i don't have unfortunately. ace review jared.

quite good :s

A few friends of mine and I have dubbed Taake the finest form of technical black metal for the plain fact that Hoest can jam so many fucking riffs into one album at a time.

Doedskvad is probably the most riffy black metal album i've ever heard.

Album Rating: 4.5

This is awesome.

Best Taake. Hoest come back please.

Album Rating: 4.5

Best Taake.

nah this is the worst out of the trilogy. still rules though

I actually like Over Bjoergvin the least. This and Doedskvad are so close.

Album Rating: 4.5

Doedskvad is my least favorite out of the 3. All of them are solid 4's for me though.

it only gets better
