DTP041 Útgarðar – Fire Smoked Upon the Wolf’s Back

In the Shadow of the Horns is where Útgarðar dwells, old-fashioned and rustless. They take the best of 90s black metal in terms of sounds, reverbs and atmospheres, with unique and inspired guitar riffs and abysmal pounding drums. Time has passed so quickly but those echoes are still strong enough to inspire a new generation of acolytes of the Northern darkness. The reference is certanly to Bathory’s first album as to “A Blaze in the Northern Sky” by Darkthrone, where a primitive musicality was still the predominant factor. There is the exact same raw but evocative power and the same genuine inspiration here, but with a better sound, a more powerful mix and all those underlying nuances that are sorely missing today. “Fire Smoked Upon the Wolf’s Back” will become a reference point for everyone nostalgic for the frozen sounds of 90s black metal.

“Fire Smoked Upon the Wolf’s Back” will be released in a 6 panels Digipak & Gatefold LP format editions on February 23th, 2024.
LP will be limited to 300 units, 100 regular black, 100 bone and 100 grey.
