  • Description

    The debut full-length of Denmark's promising purveyors of truly Medieval Black Metal, Formed in 2020, Heltekvad is a three-piece featuring members of some of Denmark's finest recent acts such as Afsky, Solbrud, Sunken and Morild.

    While the sound of Heltekvad certainly shares the passion on display in the aforementioned projects - no doubt a result of the shared members behind each entity - what sets them apart is their approach to songwriting and crafting truly medieval soundscapes. This is partially shown through the medieval instrumental interludes, which are tastefully scattered across "Morgenrodens Helvedesherre", but more fully embodied by the epic, at times even heroic sounding melodies carried by the guitars. There is an element of unbridled wilderness to be found on these seven tracks, each one containing interesting twists and turns that are sure to keep listeners returning for repeat listens.

    "a solid half-hour slab of glorious black metal melodies" - Angry Metal Guy

    "Composed of members from bands including Afsky, Sunken, and Morild, their first release offers up a triumphant feast of medieval black metal fit for the finest halls in any kingdom." - Outburn Magazine

    "Heltekvad have crafted a fun and intriguing record in Morgenrodens helvedesherre" - metalcrypt.com

    "Overall Heltekvad with their debut managed to impress and show that the whole style of medieval black metal isn't just musical LARPing as there is a genuine focus and passion for not just the aesthetic of the "ye olde times", but the music and sounds of that time, and Helktevad were able to give it a uniquely somber and melancholic spin." - Metalbite

    "a damn fine album in its own right from a promising new black metal band." - teeth of the divine
