BravePicks 2022 - NORDJEVEL’s Gnavhòl #30

Where does the time go? 2022 can be called the comeback year of all time, with virtually every band on the planet getting back on track post-COVID. So it was one helluva year for heavy metal as the releases started to pour in and the bands started to hit your town after nearly three years of madness. It is time to unveil our annual BravePicks countdown, where the devout scribes at BraveWords cast their votes at the hits and misses of the year!

30) NORDJEVEL - Gnavhòl (Indie)

 

Our Top 30 begins with devilish drippings of Nordjevel’s Gnavhòl. The Norwegian black metal force delves further into warring themes and crushes with hellish intensity. Their third full-length is their darkest and most brutal to date and is a modern day triumph of Scandinavian black metal.

Nordjevel stated about the album: “Gnavhòl is darker, more dynamic and technically on another level than before. This is how we want Nordjevel to sound.”
