VALHALLA BOUND - Spartan Youth . CD

Raw and Primitive Finnish Black Metal.

Fourth album. With better production, and the drum sound more powerful than ever, "Spartan Youth" is also often more eccentric, incorporating weirder vocal registers, like the almost Ian Curtis-ish register on tracks like "Spartan Youth", which is both bizarre and intriguing as it is catchy and ominous.

Over 30 minutes of unforgiving, unending stomp, with the Punk-ish riffage, certainly influenced by the likes of Oldjarn, Ødelegger and Bone Awl carrying the stoic energy and fury of the warrior, while the drums continuously pummel on the enemy with both powerful and captivating manner.

4-panel digipack CD.
