An amazing and fast traditional black metal album, filled with rhythmic twists and abrasive sidelines, Waldmark, by Alastor, is one of the best traditional black metal albums I’ve heard lately. With pungent abrasive vocals and graceful guitar lines that accompanies, structures and defines the basic layers of the music, Waldmark has thinly disguised on the deep spheres of its music some progressive elements, audaciously inserted at the nucleus of their highly expansive style of black metal, working in a hidden stylistic appeal in favor of the music.
With a sound more diluted, but amazingly rapid, vaporized and strong, this album manages to be black metal with something more. Graciously appealing, and with an impressive and superb work of guitars, that centralizes the basic premise of the harmonies into a more direct and useful frame of abrasive aggression and sonorous digression, Waldmark is an album way ahead of other traditional black metal albums, for its courageous spark of originality, that centers in the aggressive side of their melodies a fiercely hostile component, that makes their music sounds way more impressive, brutal, organic, true and spontaneous.
With a predisposition that sounds human, natural and volatile, an amazing element present in this album is the fact that its groundbreaking sonorous contrivance is purely monumental, and sinisterly effective, which makes Waldmark sounds so innovative, fresh and interesting. With qualities that highlight its distinctions, making this work in particular stay distant of more generic and convoluted black metal albums, produced by highly ephemeral, common and ordinary black metal bands, that limit themselves to be just copies of their influences, Waldmark, on the other hand, is a curious and intriguing black metal album, created by a band that clearly has discovered, evolved and developed their own style in the genre.
Besides the musical qualities, the album is clearly well produced, finished and have a sober, clean sound, above the top quality, which certainly helps. But none of it would be of any advantage, if the band, by itself, was deprived of abilities. Since this is not the case here, you can certainly bet that this album is a great exemplar of the genre, bound to please each and every true enthusiast of black metal out there. A magnificent work, traditional black metal will never be in better hands, after this album.
