Review: New album of Dyrnwyn, "Il Culto Del Fuoco"

Folk Black Metal band from Italy Dyrnwyn, just released an album today, called Il Culto del Fuoco, through Cult of Parthenope.
This is such a different and epic album. It combines Black Metal with Folk elements, taking you into a sort of a medieval journey.
It is very catchy, songs stay in your head. You listen to it once, and when you listen again, you recognise a lot of it.
So it has a strong powerful Black Metal vibe, and then there are the traditional instruments, such as flute, which bring to it a whole different feel and ambience.
It doesn't lose the heavyness and the anger of the Black Metal music, but the Folk feel is definitely the predominant.
I just feel sorry I only came across Dyrnwyn now, since they have been around since 2012, and this is their second full-length.
Well, a must listen, indeed. The song Le Forche Caudine (track 5), brings quite an emotional feeling.
If you are into this kind of Folk Black Metal, with a very strong Pagan vibe, and if you fancy medieval environments, just listen to it, and close your eyes, and let Il Culto Del Fuoco it take you exactly there.
It could do a good sountrack for an epic movie. Good stuff.




Also, they released a video for the first track, with the same name as the album Il Culto Del Fuoco, so you may watch it here:
