Heidevolk - Wederkeer (2 LPs)
Five years since their much-acclaimed “VUUR VAN VERZET”, early 2023 will see Dutch folk metal collective HEIDEVOLK return with their seventh studio album on Napalm Records, and continues to keep the pagan flame burning! Ever since their impressive 2005-debut, “De strijdlust is geboren”,
HEIDEVOLK took the heavy music scene by storm, conquering stages throughout the world with their very own brand of folk metal. Dual clean male vocals and irresistibly catchy songs, traditional instruments and a fast metal riffing, fueled by their folkloric fire and pagan pride, HEIDEVOLK delivers for an uncompromising sound and musical adventure. Their new masterpiece, “WEDERKEER”, makes no exception, and proves why the Arnhem-based five-piece belongs to one of the best, unrivaled and most exciting bands of their genre and beyond! In a world of myths, nature and legends of the Veluwe, Netherlands, the concept album is a powerful odyssey of the Self, deeply rooted in metal and folklore. “WEDERKEER” (return of revive) invites you to take a step back from any media and to look inside, find out who we are, what is driving us, what are our values, what did we learn from life until now? While each of the twelve new songs individually deals with an aspect in, mostly as a story, HEIDEVOLK perfectly knows how to unleash proud hymns and unsophisticated in-your-face metal songs!
