KVAD (NOR) "Cold And Dark As Life" CD

Hailing from Norway, KVAD indeed performs cold raw Black Metal exclusively in the ancient Nordic tradition. The band is yet another project of the ever-prolific Peregrinus, who numbers the likes of UNHOLY CRAFT, DARKEST BETHLEHEM, PRAEFURO among his current endeavors. The records starts with a blizzard of distortion leads into a cryogenic grimness not unlike mid-90´s GORGOROTH, particularly the hackle-raising, Hat-esque screams of Peregrinus.

For fans of DARKTHRONE, BEASTCRAFT, GORGOROTH, TRELLDOM, ISVIND, TAAKE, FIMBULWINTER and KAEVUM.

Label: PURITY THROUGH FIRE Records (PTF327)
