Our Take

In a musical landscape filled with predictable beats and generic lyrics, VALKYRJA's latest offering, "Throne Ablaze," stands out like a sore thumb – and I mean that in the best possible way. From the moment you press play, you're transported to a world where black metal reigns supreme, a world where aggression is celebrated and chaos is king.

The album's title track, "Throne Ablaze," sets the tone for what's to come, with its blistering guitars and thunderous drums creating a sonic maelstrom that will leave you breathless. Frontman Valtharion's vocals are as powerful as ever, veering between guttural growls and blood-curdling screams with effortless ease.

But don't let the brutality of VALKYRJA's music fool you – there's a surprising amount of melody and nuance to be found here, particularly on tracks like "Crimson Horizon" and "Eternal Winter." The band's musicianship is top-notch, with each member displaying a level of technical proficiency that is truly awe-inspiring.

Overall, "Throne Ablaze" is a triumph of modern black metal, a genre that is often dismissed as being too extreme or inaccessible. VALKYRJA manages to straddle the line between ferocity and finesse, delivering an album that is as satisfying as it is challenging. So brace yourself, dear listener, because this is one wild ride you won't want to miss.
