Icelandic black metal ensemble HELFRÓ are back with their sophomore album Tálgröf – A project inspired by the dark manifestations of the human mind. The sickness of humankind is explored through intense rhythmic passages, fusing the extremities of traditional death metal together with sombre, introspective lyrical convictions.
On the first track ‘Fláráð Fræði’, meaning Deceitful Theories, this fascinating fusion of elements breathes to life. Death metal blast beats culminate into dark melodies as the depths of the human mind are explored.
Watch the chilling video for ‘Fláráð Fræði’, which was created by Guilherme Henriques.
“The lyrical theme talks about a dark, sick entity that tries to learn of the origin of its evil, intrusive thoughts.” Says Ragnar about ‘Fláráð Fræði’.
“But it only gets sicker the more it learns.”
