An early Viking Metal and Norwegian Black Metal essential, Frost from Enslaved starts off with the a mysterious synth track before diving into 47 more minutes of blistering black metal rhythms woven together with abrupt synth, folksy guitar sections, progressive song structure and unrelenting raspy guttural vocals. As many others have stated Jotunblod and Wotan are absolute classics that will transport you directly to Norway in 1994. The true joy here is the contrast between the extended black metal torment and the Viking metal aspects of clean guitars and low-budget synthesizers. Svarte Vidder is a great summation of the sound on this album, despite it not being as tightly knit as aforementioned tracks. Yggdrasil seems to be the love-or-hate track on Frost. What it does very well is provide a respite in the middle of the madness with its low-tempo, echoing chants that sound like they are being sung in a dinner hall. Without it the album would be tiring and boy does it lead into Jotunblod absolutely perfectly; this cannot be by chance.
