About Me

"KVASS"Refusing to follow in the footsteps of others before or after them, the band delivered an album that sounds, looks, and feels like the very essence of KAMPFARmusic inspired by nordic natural beauty, folklore and myths. It is dark, cold, menancing, and yet alluring in a unique way. These Norwegians belong to the forerunners of the genre, though they cannot be compared to any one specific band. KAMPFAR does not place the most importance on speed, as do others, but rather on expression and content. "Kvass" is a self-contained mix of raw Black Metal and Pagan Metal embossed with traditional folkloric influences. KAMPFAR's music is and remains Norse Pagan Folklore Metal, and "Kvass" proves that compromises are unnecessary in creating greatness.

Part of "Norwegian Black Metal nr.2" By Peter Beste Releasedate 06.05.08
