Hailing from the cold city of Novocherkassk, located in southern Russia, Svartskaldr is yet another new name joining the ranks of the Slavic Pagan Black Metal generation. “Songs to the Sun” is the band’s second album recorded in 2021 and released by Hammer Of Damnation in a 4-panel digipack and 8-page booklet, limited to just 300 copies.
Following the Slavic musical tradition, once created by Nokturnal Mortum, Kroda… Svartskaldr arrives with their new album showing a high level musicality of production, with melodies that go from epic to atmospheric, and a folk ambiance, but don’t let yourself deceive, as there are no happy melodies around here! If you can relate to Slavic Pagan/Black Metal in general, Svartskaldr will definitely be your next purchase!
