A little one note but remarkably well-written throughout, enhanced by a solid, gritty production job and a distinct sense of genuineness. Even the album art builds on the texture here. Feels like a nice antithesis to Ghost Bath's vapid recent release.

"Best Moonsorrow-esque non-Moonsorrow album" might be the most accurate description.

How the fuck did I sleep on this so far?! These guys are outstanding, even from the extremly tight Finnish BM scene.

Pagan black metal packed full of amazing riffs that inspire, uplift and energize, one of the livelier BM records of recent memory. Pressing play transports the listener to the Scandinavian lands as Havukruunu really capture the Pagan BM flavor in each and every song. The riffs travel and wander and really just push forward relentlessly. The vocals have great variation with standard BM/deathly snarls, heathen viking chants, outward yells and some solid anthemic singing. The guitarist manages to fit in a few full on solos that sound right in line with their sound. Havukruunu really have a signature sound and despite it being very strong the album does run on for a bit long with some of the tracks sounding similar.

I can only imagine that Quorthon would be proud of Havukruunu's continuing his legacy of epic viking metal. "Kelle Surut Soi" is epic pagan black metal with far more Bathory influence than one would typically expect of the style, which definitely helps set it apart from genre mainstays like Nokturnal Mortem and Moonsorrow. There are plenty of epic clean choruses, as well as bounding blasting black metal, with some notable thrash/early black metal riffs thrown in as well (thank you, Bathory). Easily one of the better black metal albums of the year.

This album is packed with epic catchy riffs; however, some of these riffs sound all too familiar and generic. I was ready to turn this off after two tracks, but the occasional explosions of brilliance (every song had at least one) pushed me onward to the magnificent title track.

First two songs...some of the best BM riffs 2017 hands downs so far. Hope the rest of the album holds up.
