WAPENTAKE – Madrigals CD

Description

I like this loads, it’s an instrumental mix of neo-folk and metal. I’m loathe to say black metal, but it’s black metal in guitar tone and has a kinda post-rock feeling to it. Which usually I’d hate but it really works well. I like the neo-folk elements best, and this guy uses the same two or three chords that Death In June and Sol Invictus have been mucking about with for the past 30 years, which gets a thumbs up from me. It could maybe do with not having the samples of cows and birds and stuff at the beginning of every song. I get it, you live in the country and want to hark back to a simpler time and re-connect with the land. Got it. So…skip the first 20 seconds of every song and this is cool.
