Info:
If classic outputs from DARKTHRONE, ENSLAVED, EMPEROR or ISENGARD et al. make your blood boil, you should make sure to purchase HERSIR`s album and immerse yourself in its Northern Black Metal excellence. Despite having already been incepted in 2016 by Grim Vindkall who is primarily known for his band DOMGÅRD, Swedish HERSIR have up until this point kept a rather low profile. With only three demos to their name - none of which released physically – the horde has remained a rather obscure entity. Once released, chances are that the sheer quality of HERSIR`s first full-length effort"Hateful Draugar From The Underground" will rectify that situation in no time, though. Completely devoid of unnecessary gimmicks of any sorts, HERSIR are all content and no show. For a change, everything – the well-written lyrics dealing with Nordic spirituality of the shadow side, the music, the visual presentation - feels genuine and without any infantile pretence.
