HEVN III - Hevn III LP (Preorder)

NB! Preorder item, release 22/11

Hevn III’s debut album is a powerful statement of black metal's raw and unfiltered essence. This Norwegian trio has channeled pure, unrelenting aggression into a work that feels as if it has been pulled from the darkest recesses of the human psyche. The album is relentless and ugly, with a sound that can only be described as pitch-black hatred personified. Every track drips with venom, driven by a primal fury that refuses to be tamed.

Drawing on themes of misanthropy, magick, and the dark philosophies of Blake, Nietzsche, and Crowley, Hevn I𐕣I crafts a soundscape that is both chaotic and deeply unsettling. The riffs are dissonant and corrosive, the vocals a tortured howl that seems to echo from the abyss. The album doesn’t seek to please; it seeks to challenge, to provoke, to drag listeners into its world of darkness and despair.

For those who have experienced Hevn I𐕣I live, this album is a natural extension of the intense, suffocating atmosphere they create on stage. Their sound is tight and sulphurous, recalling an era when black metal was not just a genre, but a statement of pure, unadulterated emotion. The production is raw, yet deliberate, capturing the essence of their live performances while adding layers of depth that reveal themselves with each listen.

This debut is not just an album; it’s a ritual. A ritual of misanthropy and hatred, where each note is a curse, and each riff is a wound. Hevn III has delivered a work that will undoubtedly leave a scar on the black metal landscape, a reminder of the genre's power to evoke the darkest emotions. This is black metal at its most primal, its most venomous, its most unforgettable.
