THE BEAST

Evilon - A Warriors Way - Reviewed By darkdoomgrinddeath ! Check it out here at this link: https://darkdoomgrinddeath.blogspot.com/2023/08/evilona-warriors-way2023-full-length.html

  Evilon  are  a  band  from  Sweden  that  has  been  featured  before  in  this  zine  and  on  this  recording  plays  a  very  melodic  mixture  of  folk,  black  and  death  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  self  released  2023  album  "A  Warriors  Way"  which  will  be  released  in  September.

  A  very  epic  and  symphonic  sound  starts  off  the  album  while  also  introducing  in  elements  of  folk  music  which  also  mixes  in  with  the  heavier  sections  of  the  songs  at  times.  Melodies  are  also  added  into  a  lot  of  the  guitar  riffing  and  the  vocals  bring  in  a  mixture  of  death  metal  growls  and  black  metal  screams.

  When  guitar  solos  and  leads  are  utilized  they  are  done  in  as  very  melodic  style  while  some  songs  also  add  in  a  small  amount  of  clean  playing.  Clear  pagan  vocals  are  also  utilized  quite  a  bit  throughout  the  album  along  with  a  couple  of  tracks  also  adding  in  a  small  amount  of  clean  playing  and  acoustic  guitars,  when  the  music  finally  speeds  up  a  small  amount  of  blast  beats  can  also  be  heard  and  most  of  the  recording  sticks  to  a  mid  tempo  direction.  

  On  this  recording  Evilon  brings  in  more  of  a  symphonic  and  melodic  mixture  of  folk,  black  and  death  emtal.  The  production  sounds  very  professional  while  the  lyrics  cover  Norse  and  Celtic  Mythology  themes.  

  In  my  opinion  this  is  another  great  sounding  recording  from  Evilon  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  melodic  and  symphonic  folk,  black  and  death  emtal,  you  should  check  out  this  album.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Yggdrasil"  "A  Warriors  Way"  "Galdr"  and  Valkyria".  8  out  of  10. darkdoomgrinddeath
