Hailing from Oslo, the solo black metal entity
URKRAFT unveils a new anthem from its third
full-length offering, “Nature Skrik”, to be
released on June 5th via Dukstone (https://www.dusktone.org).
“Nature Skrik” brings another dose of progressive black metal,
combining elements of old and new, with influences from old
Arcturus and Ulver, as well as newer DHG and Oranssi Pazuzu. Moving
beyond standard tremolo picking, the newer material emphasizes
“cultish” chanting and ritualistic acoustic bridges, merging
together in a chasm of sound, from the deep abysses, to the highest
peaks. It is the sound of «nature’s scream», which also is the
title of the album in Norwegian. All music, lyrics and the artwork
were crafted by Andreas Wærholm.
When music and nature are in one embrace is time for Urkraft.Supposition for Dark sermon.
