David Fischer Whether or not you enjoy the style ov the clean vocals (I personally do): don't let the discomfortingly staring fish deter you from listening to Örmagna, as these Icelandic dudes' tunes are way too good to sleep on! Even in comparison with your 'typical' Icelandic BM, Örmagna time and again weave in unexpected and quite unique elements. Whilst having a rugged, somehow dirty tone to it, this release is on the 'rockier' side of BM, instead of contributing to the swirling, chaotic vortex. Frábært! Favorite track: 3 ár í dýflissu.

Entleiber Not as cold and scary as that ghostlike fish mask suggests, but pretty good nonetheless. If you know Icelandic black metal, you know what to expect. High quality and some surprises. Very beautiful melodies like in the title track. Clean vocals are not quite convincing, but appear only twice. The album is strongest in its most emotional moments, of which there are plenty. Music made with heart and soul.

SIGNAL REX is proud to present the striking, self-titled debut album of ÖRMAGNA.

Hailing from the modern black metal hotbed of Iceland, ÖRMAGNA are an otherwise new entity with no other public recordings, save a self-released track on Bandcamp forecasting the shape of their Örmagna debut. What can be revealed is that Naðra vocalist Ö here also handles vocals, but let comparisons end there: ÖRMAGNA are undoubtedly a poignant new development in the increasingly rich landscape of Icelandic black metal.

Right after the chopped & screwed intro to the album, Örmagna explodes with a heart-bursting amount of passion and emotion. Its spiritual basis is black metal, within and without, but as the album progresses - or, for that matter, each of its six central songs - ÖRMAGNA weave windingly epic screeds of melody and fury that cycle through a surprisingly vast array of textures and tropes. It pushes and pulls with patience and insistence alike, guiding the listener on a fever-dreaming journey through mysteries unknown and unknowable, but always with gritty physicality that's difficult to resist. As such, Örmagna is as modern as it is ancient...or, more accurately, its magickal storytelling is simply timeless.

Rounded out by mastering courtesy of Misþyrming's D.G., ÖRMAGNA's self-titled debut album is a proud 'n' powerful new chapter in Icelandic black metal.
