│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ FOREFATHERà Never heard of them... But wow! What ║ │
│║ a great cover! Folks, you know exactly that you ║ │
│║ can lure me in with thatà ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The info says something about Melodic Black ║ │
│║ Metal, it's two guys from England, so CRADLE OF ║ │
│║ FILTH? Hell, no! I had already prepared for ║ │
│║ something hefty, but what Athelstan and Wulfstan ║ │
│║ have come up with here is great, really great!v ║ │
│║ Very melodic, with rough as well as clean ║ │
│║ vocals, it reminds me a little of VINTERSORG, ║ │
│║ even though there is a lot less folk and the ║ │
│║ voice sounds different, but the atmosphere is ║ │
│║ comparable to the Swede, I can't help ità A ║ │
│║ little Viking Metal is also gliding along, so ║ │
│║ let's call it Anglo Saxon Metal. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ What the Vikings for AMON AMARTH and co. are the ║ │
│║ Anglo Saxons for FOREFATHER, the founders of ║ │
│║ England and Great Britain. The duo tells stories ║ │
│║ of battles, explorations and legends, supported ║ │
│║ by very, very melodic music, which just has ║ │
│║ feeling, the guitars are the most Black Metallic ║ │
│║ element, but still they are far more than just ║ │
│║ that. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Here and there the guitars remind me of the ║ │
│║ Belarus-gods GODS TOWER, intricate, but still ║ │
│║ with a light Folk-touch, the voice ║ │
│║ proclamatory/narratingly singing, sounds great, ║ │
│║ not the usual standard-whine or croak or that, ║ │
│║ but fitting the overall sound of FOREFATHER ║ │
│║ perfectly. Only the production here and there is ║ │
│║ a little under-bass-ed, a little more power in ║ │
│║ that department would surely not have hurt. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Coming from nowhere, attacking me with such a ║ │
│║ strong content, those are the surprises I never ║ │
│║ tire of, all who did not have this luck, watch ║ │
│║ out for "Engla Tocyme", the British form of ║ │
│║ Viking Metal, mostly with clear and heroic ║ │
│║ vocals, very melodic and atmospheric, both ║ │
│║ thumbs up! ║ │
