Description
NIVLHEL´s `Ur vrede född` demo came as a real bombshell with the press, but was never available in a physical format. In the last few years Nordic Black Metal rarely sounded so close to the roots and at the same time this fresh! Now finally available as noble vinyl edition in a gatefold cover limited to 400 copies. #### PRESS: #### `...the Swedes set an extremely high standard for Black Metal for this year.`

`With their first and only demo `Ur vrede född` the Swedish band Nivlhel has released nothing less than a stunner, which caused quite a stir even outside of their home country - is the band peering hard at Norway with their raw sound design? Four songs, simply entitled `Vrede I - IV`, certainly don´t miss their target and build on where the pioneers of the 90ies have long since left the field.`
8/10 Points (Thor Wanzek, Hammerheart) #### `...the band delivers a great example for melodic yet fast and powerful Viking/Black Metal. Without a doubt Pagan topics are no word of foreign origin on this record.`
