Kråkslott – The Witchhammer
Self released – 2021
Metal, Proto, Doom, Sludge
Rated: ****
The three have not been together for that very long but already released a single in 2019 and self-titled five-track in 2020. Getting vocal aid in the form of a Choir Of Power and the addition of extra Gutteral Vocals for the new release they will now surely be recognized as practitioners of high caliber power doom! The new two track release by Swedish trio Kråkslott is called The Witchhammer and it will slay every motherfucker in the room. Intense grimy and gritty the percussion creaks and skitters like a haunted galleon, while groaning guitars set forth through a dense fog of fuzz and distortion. The two tracks will count for twenty minutes of doom that mesmerize with their proto influences almost as much as they will surely do with their menacing kicks of sludge. The landscape painted crimson red and the atmosphere occultish purple; there is not a drop of blood coursing through your veins that will not agree to this o’ so satisfyingly unsettling display of powerful doom. It’s a mere two track release but The Witchhammer feels like a massive doomathon.
