Hulder - Verses In Oath (2024)
Hulder's Verses in Oath showcases a significant evolution in both songwriting and production, delivering a potent blend of traditional black metal with progressive and folk elements. The album opens with the eerie "An Elegy," setting a haunting tone that permeates tracks like "Boughs Ablaze," where Hulder's vocals draw comparisons to Opeth's Mikael Åkerfeldt. The inclusion of atmospheric interludes such as "Lamentation" and "An Offering" adds depth, while the blazing tremolos of "Veil of Penitence" highlight the band's dynamic range. Overall, Verses in Oath stands as a compelling testament to Hulder's growth, offering a fresh yet familiar experience for black metal enthusiasts.
