Metallurgical Fire This album makes me think these guys have been listening to quite a lot of Gojira. That’s not a bad thing. I love the production. It’s my second favorite album from Skogen. Favorite track: The Suns Blood.

RidgeForest Very nordic sounding metal... I like the doomy atmosphere and folky melodies of this album. One of my favorite Skogen albums because it's not only black metal but also quite original style. Favorite track: Nebula.
Obstacle of Affliction

Obstacle of Affliction Yet another superb performance by Skogen which explores a more dynamic and progressive path. A sound which is much like a fine wine that has matured with age and highly desirable. Favorite track: The Funeral.

about

Under a frozen Swedish moon, Skogen have their sonic pentagram of albums in homage to the stark, nebular beauty of their motherland. Theirs is a blackened folkish metal possessed by the mysteries of nature and dedicated to paying homage to its majesty, both in light and darkness. This polarity is felt in the music as subtly beautiful melodies and clean vocals are woven into the more pervasive darker tones that saturate Skuggorna Kallar, like the blanket of night, heavy with dew. You could say that it is simultaneously the band’s most complete and darkest work to date.

Our sonic journey starts at the onset of a Nordic eve, as the sun shines its last reluctant rays on the bleak landscape. Dark omens are foretold by our shrouded companion, or is it Loki, playing with our minds as the frostbite takes hold, numbing our brains and weakening our defences. Finally, the sun’s blood seeps through the seemingly impenetrable fog of pre-dawn grimness and we are arrived at our final destination, beneath the mighty ash -Yggdrasil. Only then do we realize that the gods have indeed played laid down our final card and the funeral rites begin. Valhalla awaits.
