Nårdegaist (Sweden): “Gaimald”

​A new band emerges from the Swedish scene: Nårdegaist from Gotland, an island in the south-east of Sweden where the vestiges of an ancient history abound. Nårdegaist pay tribute to the rich traditions of their land and in their debut album Gaimald they sing in their native dialect, the Gutamål or Gutnish, which can even boast its own literature with roots that sink in the Middle Ages. Naturally the lyric themes can only draw on Gutnish history and myths. Musically speaking, you will hear well forged melodic black metal, with guitars intertwined in polyphonic melodies and many mid-tempos with an epic vein. To make it short, Gaimald is certainly a good start that promises a prosperous future for the band. Ad maiora!
