‘Blood and Iron’ by Wolftooth
Rating
Musical Feel
Song / Album Composition
“Ahab,” the slow building opener sets the scene perfectly for the band. A song that fits in crunching riffs, terrestrial melodies and something deeply primal within the inner workings of tide and time. A tenuorous grip on the madness of the whirlwind.
“Blood & Iron,” the title track is epic. Simply put, shimmering through the taut world of time and space. It brings together eclectic melodies and fuzz. A song that creeps into the fabric of time.
“Broken Sword,” creaks and creeps along the settled tide of time. A song that delivers in oomph.
“Winter White,” turns on the tide. A song that flitters and flatters, and delves deep within the inner turmoil of man.
“The Mare,” is a riff sandwich. Creeping into oblivion as surely as the sun doth rise, a madman magicking through the shuttered pavilion of the mind.
The album is out on 3rd December via Napalm Records.
