Described by Metal Hammer UK as a “unique time-travel in metal,” commending their merge of ’70s rock, ’80s classic metal and Norwegian black metal, with the eight-track Welcome Farewell Vreid again add a new twist to their already difficult-to-pinpoint sound. Comments Hváll of the new material, “It’s been a lot of work, but we are utterly pleased with the result. ‘Dark,’ ‘heavy’ and ‘Vreid’ are the three keywords to describe it.”
