Haxkapell- Om Jordens Blod Och Urgravens Grepp LP

From the far reaches of Haparanda, Sweden, Häxkapell present a black metal masterpiece that resonates with the eternal rhythms of nature and the cyclical dance of life and death.

Om jordens blod och urgravens grepp" ("Of the earth's blood and the grave's grasp") is a powerful blend of black metal, folk and atmospheric darkness, interwoven with classical and progressive influences. Traditional instruments such as violin, viola, willow flute and hand drum give the music an ancient, primal energy. The lyrics, created through subconscious writing, serve as a conduit to the mystical and otherworldly.

The album was engineered, produced and mixed by Oraklet. The drums were recorded at Nordvis Ljudstudio, while the rest of the tracks were recorded at Studio HMH. Mastering was done by Tore Stjerna at Necromorbus Studio.

Founded in 2015 in the northernmost part of Scandinavia, Häxkapell is the creation of Oraklet, who embarked on an inward journey to explore the philosophical, spiritual and mystical aspects of existence. Following the demo "Om sanningen" in 2016, Häxkapell released their debut album "Eldhymner" in 2021.

On "Om jordens blod och urgravens grepp", Häxkapell's music evolves much like the earth itself: slowly, imperceptibly, yet constantly changing. It reflects the cycle of birth and death, of death and life beginning anew, as earthy folk melodies murmur ancient slumber into dawn. Oraklet channels these profound truths into lyrics and music.
