Enjoy Hayduke’s Top 50 of 2021 list.
Voland – Царепоклонство – Il culto degli Zar
Elements of symphony, black metal, doom metal, and folk metal blend together in dark, melodic, bombastic package of weird and interesting music.

FULL ALBUM STREAM: Deathvoid – Semaphore
This demo is a truly excellent example of creating meaning and emotion within objectively difficult music.
FEATURE: Sacrilegious Crown – Culto II: Under The Blasphemous Spirits
“Raw black metal is not for everyone, of course, but its strength lies in its ambiguity.”
FULL ALBUM STREAM: Kharàce – Dakhalè
Primarily mid-paced in rhythms and riffing, predominate on Dakhalè, drawing the listener down into hypnotic contemplation.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Uncertainty Principle – Stationary State
What you should take from that is that this album is exceptional, gripping, dark, and powerful.
Gelkhammar – The Sword of Gelfiser
Each listen leaves me simultaneously fulfilled and wanting more. Perhaps that is the sorcerous power of the sword.
