URKRAFT

“Nature Skrik” is progressive black metal, combining elements of old and new, with influences from old Arcturus and Ulver, as well as newer DHG and Oranssi Pazuzu. Moving beyond standard tremolo picking, the newer material emphasizes "cultish" chanting and ritualistic acoustic bridges, merging together in a chasm of sound, from the deep abysses, to the highest peaks. It is the sound of «nature's scream», which also is the title of the album in Norwegian.

This sophomore album by Urkraft celebrates darkness and the lights that shine in it, be they campfires, streetlights or the stars. Through seven tracks, the listener is taken on a journey through forests rife with wondrous complexities, where the blackest of nights are illuminated by the cold glow of the moon.

Urkraft's music is a relentless assault of savage riffs and haunting melodies, driven by thundering drums and punctuated by anguished screams that echo across the barren wastelands.

With "Lyset skinner best i mørket", Urkraft delivers an uncompromising ode to the beauty of darkness and the power of black metal to channel its primal energy. Prepare to be embraced by the shadows that lurk within. The darkness awaits...
