HAMFERD
Men Guds Hond Er Sterk

The doom metal band Hamferd from the Faroe Islands took 6 years to complete their follow-up album to 2018's Tamsins likam.

The band deliberately took their time and finally recorded the album together live in the studio.

Concertedly eschewing all the quick-fix trickery of modern recording technology, the band recorded the songs playing all together live in the studio, without a click-track. The result is a resoundingly human album that heaves, swoops and shifts in elemental style - from passages of glacial post-metallic beauty through sorrowful folky goth cadences, via icy blackened blastbeats to shuddering vistas of extreme doom mastery - with a crackling tight-but-loose interplay recalling the giants of yesteryear.
