        I listen to a LOT of black metal. And generally speaking, I enjoy the
        greater majority of what I hear. It is rare for me to react negatively,
        but it is even rarer for me to stop what I'm doing and pay attention on
        a first spin. Honestly, when Gryftigaen's new album, Fehun≡yrdau≡r,
        entered my review list, I expected more of the same raw, second-wave
        worship as their last release, Graven til Mσneσpenbaringer. I did not
        expect an occult journey through tangible realms of shadow and despair
        along the lines of Leviathan's classic The Tenth Sub Level of Suicide or
        Xasthur's Subliminal Genocide. Colour me VERY pleasantly surprised and
        more than a little disturbed, in the very best sense of the word. Gone
        is the dedication to low-fidelity DIY recording, as are the more clichΘd
        tropes of the genre: instead, these are replaced with delicate choral
        overlays, melodies teetering on the very edge of utter dissonance that
        wouldn't be out of place on a Blut Aus Nord record and violent shifts in
        mood that drag you into deeper absorption.
        The vocal delivery of sole member Lord Valtgryftσke is probably the
        least evolved element of the production û but that's not a bad thing.
        The deranged gutturals and drawling groans are still front and center,
        grinding grit into the proceedings, but somehow still ebbing and flowing
        organically, weaving through the wall of sound (an approach well-used by
        the likes of Taake and Gaahls WYRD) to add dimension and depth. The net
        result is one of full-body immersion, where the aural faculty overrides
        all other senses and plunges you into the ritualistic maelstrom
        Gryftigaen has crafted, making you less listener than sacrificial
        victim.
        The greatest drawback to the album is that there is no clear standout
        ôsingleö to celebrate; try as I might, the seven songs blur and merge
        into one 40-minute opus, a true hymn to darkness, hatred and terror. At
        the same time, though, this is the true magic of Fehun≡yrdau≡r û it
        casts its spell so completely and inescapably that escape never enters
        into the listener's head, hauling you bodily through corridors of death
        and delight, yet somehow thrusting you back into the waking world upon
        the closing strains of ôEi≡r Myrkrö a renewed, revitalized being. In
        fact, it's only the briefest moment of absolute silence separating
        ôCrossing Through the Pillars of Azazylö from the downtempo crushing
        weight of ôDrowned in a Rising Sunö that gives any pause or relief from
        the seemingly endless waves of emotional trauma.
        The Portuguese powerhouse Gaerea describes their sound as ôcathartic
        black metalö and Gryftigaen are well-positioned with Fehun≡yrdau≡r to
        enjoy the same classification. This record is an absolute masterpiece,
        and easily the crowning glory of Chile's inner circle of Pure Raw
        Underground Black Metal Plague. For a sophomore release after only two
        active years, Gryftigaen has an inspiring (there is no way I can use the
        term æbright' without drowning in irony) future to look ahead to.
