Our Take

Norwegian avant-garde black metal outfit Urarv have returned with their latest sonic offering "Substratumin," a whirlwind of experimental sounds and unorthodox song structures. Like a musical kaleidoscope, this album takes the listener on a journey through twisted corridors of dissonance and cacophony. Lead vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Bjørn Aldrahn Dencker, known for his work with bands like DHG and Thorns, shines on this record with his visceral and haunting vocals that seem to echo from the depths of hell itself. His mastery of the black metal genre is evident throughout, as he effortlessly weaves together elements of black metal, avant-garde, and even hints of jazz and classical music. Tracks like "Psychedelic Epiphany" and "Drowning in Moss" showcase Urarv's ability to push the boundaries of the black metal genre, seamlessly blending harsh, aggressive riffs with ethereal melodies and unconventional time signatures. The result is a truly unique listening experience that will leave even the most seasoned black metal aficionados scratching their heads in awe. "Substratumin" is not for the faint of heart. It is a challenging, thought-provoking album that demands multiple listens to fully appreciate its complexities. But for those willing to dive headfirst into Urarv's twisted sonic landscape, the rewards are plentiful. This is black metal at its most daring and avant-garde, a testament to the limitless possibilities of the genre. Highly recommended for fans of experimental music and those looking to expand their musical horizons.
