GAAHLS WYRD is a project of Gaahl of Gorgoroth, God Seed, Trelldom, Wardruna and others. What to expect from him today? Kristian Eivind Espedal presents himself on a solo career much more seriously and self-possessed, and ever since his successful debut "GastiR - Ghosts Invited" was released Wyrd is no longer just re-playing songs from his former bands.
“GastiR” is a sophisticated and voluminous material covering an incredibly large spectrum of moods stemming not only from black metal directions and complemented by the unexpected contrasts of his unmistakable voice spectrum. Poisonous hypnosis with a great amount of strength!
To simply say that MALEVOLENCE are groove metal/metalcore, would definitely wrong them. In their hatebreedian hardcore one can easily hear traces of sludge, stoner or southern rock. It's not only about power chords and rocking riffs accompanied by aggressive vocals, but also about slightly crowbarish (or sabbathish) melodies. Even if they drive a full throttle, you have space to breathe.
