Description
"Urfader" (translated to "the ancient father") is Grimner's fourth full-length album.
With "Urfader", Grimner returns with fire and power. This time, they have added the metal to folk metal. Their roots and influences of Swedish death metal and their love of heavy and power metal is weaved together with enchanting folk melodies and pagan choirs to create their own unique sound once again - all sung in their native Swedish, as always.
The crisp and fresh new sound of this album really makes you hear what Grimner all is about. Thrashing guitar riffs, the mix of powerful clean and harsh vocals, pounding drums, all mixed with beautiful and distinct flutes and other folk instruments make for an atmosphere that fits the tales of the old Norse gods and folklore alike.
