VARG – ewige wacht DigiDCD+Slipcase

“VARG, Germany’s top-notch pagan metal force, returns stronger than ever on their new album, entitled Ewige Wacht.
Digipak 2-CD in Slipcase with 28pages Booklet

The eighth studio album transports Nordic mythology as well as values like honesty and loyalty. VARG once again show themselves to be an invincible unit, as the opening track “”Immer Treu”” (Engl. Always Faithful) already is proof of. At the very first listen it becomes apparently clear, how much singer Fylgja has been involved in the full album this time. Her valkyrie-like singing expands the band’s sonic spectrum and forms a perfectly harmonizing contrast to Freki’s razor-sharp screams and growls. “”Schildmaid”” (shieldmaiden), “”Fylgja”” and “”Eisenseite”” are emblematic of this interplay and the path VARG have been treading since Zeichen. “”Weltenfeind”” (enemy of the world), “”Tyr”” and “”Hammer”” resound as powerful hymns, uncompromising with mercilessly brute nagging and cutting riffs. The folky melodies in “”Morgenrot”” (dawn) lead to the epic “”Siegreiches Heer”” (victorious army), which once again sharpens the idea of unity that runs like a red thread through Ewige Wacht. The title track forms the final climax and combines pagan themes, haunting melodies and the engaging power of the wolves to end this outstanding sonic adventure, leading into promising times for the German horde.”
