Uklarhet (Poland): “Uklarhet”

Don't let yourselves be misled by the Norwegian name meaning darkness; Uklarhet is a Polish black metal band from Warsaw founded in 2013, and after six years, they have released a self-titled EP as their first release ever. As you can guess from the name, Scandinavian black metal is the main source of inspiration for the Polish band: Uklarhet delivers mid-paced black metal played mostly in tremolo picking, vaguely reminiscent of Danish Angantyr but with less emotional intensity and more coldness, especially the second track "Pólnoc." Also interesting is the cover of "A Forest" by The Cure in a black metal version transformed by riffs in tremolo picking. In conclusion, Uklarhet by Uklarhet is a good start for the Polish band, especially recommended if you are a fan of the old black metal sound.
