Again, the Swedisch firt-rate talents hit the ground running and expectorate their second album – which is even more efficient! Thunderous blizzard riffings and subfreezing melody storms!

    The Adversarial Incentive Within All

by Markus Eck (22.02.2010) If you own their last (and first) album "The invocation of demise", you certainly have a highlight of Swedish Black Metal in your collection. And now, you have yet another one coming: "Contamination", Valkyria's secound output, is even better! Although the line up has undergone some changes, the resipe is still the same: brutal riffing, icy, atmospheric melodies, a pumping bass, and fat drums are the basics, topped off with dark and demonic vocals - mighty impressive stuff. Apart from the awesome guitar wizardry, the brutal and versatile drumming of J. Wallgren impresses me extremely: the man is wielding his sticks masterly, delivering breathtaking breaks, adding overwhelming clout to it all. In case you prefer epic parts: rejoice, you'll also get your fair share.
