Review of Månegarm’s album, “Edsvuren,” which also marks the band’s 30th anniversary. The reviews generally praise the album’s blend of aggressive Viking/Pagan metal with acoustic folk elements, highlighting the dynamic interplay between harsh and clean vocals, intricate guitar work, and prominent use of the violin. While acknowledging the album’s strengths in its heavier moments and beautiful acoustic passages, one review suggests that the overall pacing sometimes falters due to a higher proportion of mid-tempo and acoustic tracks. Both articles agree that the album showcases the band’s continued evolution and their role as a significant force in the folk metal genre, even as other bands in the scene have slowed down. They conclude that “Edsvuren” is a solid and enjoyable addition to Månegarm’s extensive discography.
