Hailing from Slovenia Snøgg offer a very unique and experimental approach to Black Metal, featuring two members Ulv(Guitar & Vocals) & Mørke(Drums), the band have released a tour demo & two EP's including this one entitled Qivitoq.
Combining an atmosphere & rawness similar to the likes of Burzum,Urfaust & Xasthur there's an uneasiness & torturous element running throughout the EP, Opening track Alien Nation has some sort of radio frequency noise at the start of the track then suddenly the vocals kick in creating a rawness & nastiness i've not heard the like of before. I've noticed that sometimes the vocals are less prominent then the music/noise effects on most of the tracks on offer, but when there is it adds a somewhat atmospheric element to proceedings.This is a very unique release which may well need numerous listen before it really sinks in, whats on offer is really good,it may well be very experimental but it sure as hell doesn't deter from the fact that there is some quality Black Metal on offer for the listener.
Qivitoq have a really underground ethos and they will surely have a mass cult following for years to come,what they offer is not going to be polished production, generic sounding Black Metal, they are meant to be raw,filthy and a very uneasy sounding band.
BLACK F***ING METAL!!!!!
