My first thought upon hearing this first track of GJENFERDSEL's I album is, they have a great guitar tone and amazing production. This album is like Darkthrone but with better riffs, less boring drums, and an amazing sound. Every track on the album is headbang worthy, fist shaking, horn wielding black metal! Track 3 Deathbound is already one of my favorites, complete with fast grooving riffs moving into slower, clean bits only to get fast again. An even better example of diversity is track 4 Stolthet, blasting black metal with hints of a death metal vibe with deeper growls, faster blasts, and more grinding guitars. Upon hearing this album I immediately liked it, simple because you can hear everything; most notably the bass guitar. Every song off this album is not only catchy, but it is more diverse than your standard Norwegian black metal album. But the overall album is very well together. The only fault I would have to say about I is the speed and time. Every song off the album sounds like a simple 4/4 time signature, which is okay; yet every song is a bit slower than what I would normally prefer. However, overlooking this small fault, this debut album from Norway's GJENFERDSEL is amazing. This is a band I would keep my eyes on for the coming years.
