Poison seeping through the thickest skull Takes claim a tortured soul None shall be spared, who stand in the way Slaughter them all. Claim what's mine O how the witches have poisoned the mind Of once loyal, most honest of its kind The scent of blood thickens the air The wine of life is drawn Premonitions given weight Taken as truths, made reality Thoughts cursed, leading to ruin Hunger for power, hunger for war O how the witches have poisoned the mind Of once loyal, most honest of its kind The scent of blood thickens the air The wine of life is drawn Premonitions given weight Taken as truths, made reality I must manifest my destiny I must claim what was promised to me

This album is just 100/100, like so many albums from mgla. How can a band hit the spot so many times? They are incredible. Thank you for accompanying me almost daily these days :) adrianradillo

A Pagan black metal masterpiece.
Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way. Abyssius Murkraken

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74

Late 90's BM worship, but it's also a lil more than that. This album takes the best elements from the scene it's inspired by and mostly avoids the worst of it; the song-writing is well-written, it's performed with passion and fun, and the production is raw but isn't lo-fi. (i.e. it doesn't obfuscate and/or suckass).
Tl;dr It's safe but high quality BM. Recommended. Rabbit
