about

The Germanic Tribes stand against Rome. 4th Album from the Pagan Metal Horde With their latest album, Heidevolk takes their fans to a time in which Germanic tribes fought against the Roman Empire along the banks of the Rhine for domination of Northwest Europe. Caught in the middle of it all were the Batavians, the protagonists and namesakes of Heidevolk's latest album "Batavi". Set against the backdrop of war, alliances, intrigue, and betrayal, the nine songs relate the struggle of a people needing to redefine themselves in order to survive this turbulent time. While the band's musical path continues to explore traditional pagan metal, it proves to be much more resolute and aggressive than ever before. The characteristic clean sound of both Heidevolk vocalists recounts the stories comprising "Batavi", while heavy guitars, thundering drums, and folk melodies build the foundation of each track: at times sweeping and at others melancholic. Peter Tägtgren's mix masterfully defined the band's sound on this 2012 release. "Batavi" catapults the listener directly onto the northwestern European battlefields of the Roman Empire.

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity.

Pair some epic power metal and heavy metal and you have yourself an amazing album. Produce an album like Abyss and you have an instant classic. I can't wait to hear what comes next from this talented group. Trevor Mills
