Late 90's BM worship, but it's also a lil more than that. This album takes the best elements from the scene it's inspired by and mostly avoids the worst of it; the song-writing is well-written, it's performed with passion and fun, and the production is raw but isn't lo-fi. (i.e. it doesn't obfuscate and/or suckass).
Tl;dr It's safe but high quality BM. Recommended. Rabbit
This opvs could perfectly be our last epitaph where Irrfrärd’s narrative descends into our own incandescent hell ov pain, bitterness, suffering and deep and heartbreaking sadness, but Ofdrykkja as band has a bipolar disorder that in deep wisdom knows how to combine folk melancholy with the heartbreaking distortion of their instruments that give off the stench ov decadence where last hope is found in a flight with no return under the mournful fog of an end that freezes our blood… I embrace it… Shanti
