Vargr – FTW (Album Review)

Release Date: July 31st 2023 - Blooddawn Productions / Regain Records

Vargr – FTW

In Norse mythology, a Vargr is a wolf, especially the wolf Fenrir that destroyed the god Odin in the battle of Ragnarök. Henrik Nordvargr Björkk (no stranger to electronic chaos with MZ412) has adopted the name and its destructive war-like nature for release number two, FTW, an abattoir of obscene undefinable black noise that destroys all before it.

FTW is an acquired taste; it has been at least ten years since the last release and whilst ‘’FTW 2‘’ contains a recognizable 2/4 industrial structure, everything else is up for grabs. ‘’FTW 7’’ has moments of recognizable black metal, yet ‘’FTW 6’’ is a shrieking bloody nightmare of white noise that is unrelenting, the vocals a backdrop to the musical disorder and disarray of ideas and sounds, the synth respites are far too brief against the bays, demonic whistles, electronic industrial percussion and sheer noise of the compositions.

It is through the mastery of his art that FTW doesn’t fall into the abyss of self-indulgence, it is always listenable, but at times it is not a pleasant experience. For every memorable melody, there is horror and torment imminently following. For every recognizable snippet, an undefinable mass of heaviness awaits lurking to strike. You will yield to the cacophony or be broken by it.

A carnal soundscape of terror that shrieks, howls and malevolently makes a mockery of the ‘’accepted” normality music. FTW is literally its namesake in terms of accessibility, definition and the overloading of the senses. Utter ‎Pandemonium
