Thrudvangar are a German band playing a conventional but enjoyable breed of melodic Folk/Black Metal. All the expected elements are here, from the tremolo riffing, to the heavy keyboard use and the raspy vocals. There is nothing here fans of Blodsrit or Himinbjorg have not heard before, but it is all done well. This band has more atmospheric leanings than others in their genre, with the keyboard parts and the intoned passages like invocations to old gods. But again, the sound of Thrudvangar is very familiar for fans of the genre. This is a good album, if not a great one, and is a sure bet for fans of the style.
