Recomendation for the Pagan Metal lovers: Helritt - "Trotzend dem Niedergang"

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Helritt released their debut album "Trotzend dem Niedergang" in February, and I haven't seen anyone post about these German dudes, so I figured I'd bring them up even though my n00bness to RC might make my opinion carry little weight. Pretty much anyone into the awesome Euro pagan metal bands (Especially Eric and KriggityFrank) will love these guys, methinks.

Hitler is amused.

 

[Ars Magna]

I've never even heard of them. Good stuff.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

dammit, another band I've been meaning to check out

 

[EricT]

I've been told this was an awesome release by a few people now, and I have yet to check it, or any samples from it, out.

I have been getting too much new music lately. I need to slow it down a bit.

 

[MFJ]

This is pretty good, but it sadly suffers from "already been done" syndrome. That's alright though, most bands are like that?

Still, good recommendation.

 

[Tranquillian]

So far so good (on track 2). I like this better than Raventale so far.

 

[JayKeeley]

not bad.

7/10

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

I'd give it an 8.5/10. I suppose it does suffer from a little unoriginality, like the Other Max said, but they're quite good at what they do.

The whole album is good, imo. Their riffs are pretty catchy.
It's cool that they have some slow and melodic tracks too. And German language makes it sound a bit 'exotic'.
