I am not very familiar with Svartkraft's old albums but from what I've heard, it is obvious that the band keeps pushing the boundaries in every new album. The black metal duo from Finland shows a wide range of influences in their new endeavour and includes post-rock (i.e. slow passages and grungy guitar sound) and progressive black metal (i.e. rich chords and guitar arrpeggios) influences. The tracks are mostly mid-tempo and the vocals are sometimes clean/melodic and sometimes typical BM screams. There are also some symphonic elements here and there adding an extra spice to the whole depressive atmosphere.
