Ancestors Blood – Hyperborea CD

Ancestors Blood – Hyperborea CD (Naturmacht) Ancestors Blood are far from an innovative band, nor do they offer too much musical complexity. They simply craft great music from well tested concepts. The guitars are cruel and grim, though they often twist into the glorious melodies of the keyboards and cast their own shadows through very basic melodies. Hyperborea is yet another of those pagan metal experiences which is a pleasure to listen in its entirety, individual tracks may not provide the beholder with the diversity or full immersion required for enjoyment. Listen to the whole record, and a different picture emerges, one of sadness and longing.
