Norwegian black metal brigade KHOLD have posted a track-by-track breakdown of their new album Til endes, courtesy of drummer Sarke, outlining the motivations behind the music and what to expect from each song on its new album, Til Endes, out now on Peaceville Records.
Til Endes, undoubtedly the band’s strongest work to date, explores the dark foreboding corners of the metal spectrum with eerie riffs, grim vocals courtesy of mysterious frontman Gard, and catchy hooks which are so often ignored in the genre.
Expanding upon Khold’s staple sound of mid-tempo primitive and heavy black metal, the band’s sixth studio release adds an additional aggressive edge to the tracks overall, whilst retaining its use of solely Norwegian lyrics. The album also notably includes a cover of the Sepultura classic, “Troops Of Doom”, given the full Khold treatment, and titled “Dommens Arme”.
Til Endes was recorded at Studio Fredman (Amon Amarth, At the Gates, Opeth) in Sweden in June with the lineup of Gard (vocals/guitar), Sarke (drums), Rinn on guitar and Crowbel on bass.
