KAMPFAR

"Fra underverdenen"

New 1999 full-length album of stirring & enflamed Viking Black Metal from Norway now on Hammerheart Records Holland! D.E.i./Hammerheart says:

Kampfar have been around ever since the dawn of Norwegian Black Metal, and are considered a leader in the Viking / Black Metal genre. Kampfar combines Black Metal with Folk music, resulting in a sound that somewhat reminiscent of Satyricon and Storm, but of course in their own style. The MCD 'Norse' was the first sign of life in two years. Now they are back with a full length, 'Fra Underverdenen'.
Kampfar started out as the solo project of Dolk, the former mainman of the legendary band Mock. The release of a limited promotion-tape in the summer of 1995 started it all, and the labels that jumped for it were too numerous to count (including Hammerheart). That promotional tape was released by the French label Season Of Mist and sold 5,000 copies. By this time Kampfar had signed to German based Malicious Records, who released 'Mellom Skogledde Aaser' on CD/LP in the beginning of 1997. Meanwhile Hammerheart records never lost contact and Dolk decided to sign with them in the spring of 1998.

KAMPFAR

(self-titled)

Our pick to be "dark-horse winner of the year" (1997)! New debut mini-CD from Norway's most promising new black metal band (featuring former members of Mock from Hammerheart Records)! This is hard-hitting, raging BM of the truest elite attack! Mid-tempo or ultra-speedy, these three songs are guaranteed to catapult Kampfar into dark, satanic stardom alongside Satyricon (Kampfar's most immediate & favorable comparisons), Emperor, Enslaved, & Immortal! Full-length on Norwegian label, Black Towers coming soon! *(see also "A History of a Time to Come" compilation featuring an exclusive Kampfar track!)

MOCK

"Vinterlandet"

Mock's epic 1994 swansong before Dolk Kampfar left to form his own band; three songs just under a total of 13 minutes. This is true Norwegian metal: majestic, speedy, dark, heavy, & melodic all at the same time; a vastly improved sound that streamlines the harder, primitive so und presented in their "Cold Winter" demo. Compares to a sparser Emperor (without keyboards) blended with Dissection or Enslaved, & definitely hints at the Viking characteristics of later Kampfar.

Imported from Holland (on Hammerheart Records).

TUMULUS/MOCK (split)

"Hymns and Dirges"/"Cold Winter"

Tumulous present emotional doom & blackened grind, although highly charged with female vocals (similar to the young pretties in Weltenbrand!) in duets with low, doomy male vocals (& sometimes clean male vocals, too); an impressive atmosperic execution, albeit reminiscent of Paradise Lost or My Dying Bride (Tumulous' great soaring melodies & ethereal keyboards support this!).

Mock's "Cold Winter" demo finally reprised here on compact-disc in all its dark barbaric glory for true fans of straightahead, raging Black Metal! Heavy (though melodic in an epic, headbanging intensity) power thrash that is highly recommended as an essential companion to Mock's "Vinterlandet" MCD, & illustrating the early development of Dolk Kampfar (now of Kampfar-- epic debut album on Malicious records out soon!). *(This split-CD totals over 52 minutes running-time!)

Imported from Holland (on Hammerheart Records).
