Fenris kindir

Eighth full-length by the mystical Swedish force Arckanum, “Fenris Kindir” unleashes a brutal and shadow-drenched work that fuses raw black metal with ritualistic interludes and eerie ambient textures, diving deep into the Nordic myth of the wolf Fenris through Shamaatae’s unmistakably gnostic lens. Primitive riffs, abrasive production and relentless blast beats shape an alien, ancient atmosphere, while tracks like “Dólgrinn” bring a black-’n’roll groove and “Vargøld” erupts with warped distortions and feral vocal textures that summon pure cosmic chaos. Though intentionally feral and untamed, “Fenris Kindir” stands as an epic, challenging and deeply ritualistic journey within Arckanum’s ever-evolving legacy.
