Review
Another black metal band from Norway and another with quality written all over it, on debut album "Holmengraa" Blodhemn have put out a release many of the others who worship at the altar of the genre gods would love to call their own. Far from being a mere clone of their revered forbearers however, Blodhemn have instilled a mark of their own in the bristling and perfectly produced riffs which thunder into your ears at every moment in this 7 song opus at such a rate you would think riffing will be out of fashion any time soon. Melodically-inclined thrashing black metal this is, no further questions needed and created all by one man. - Rock Freaks 4/5
