Enslaved – 'Eld' 2LP

Double LP edition on 180g amber orange & black vinyl in gatefold sleeve with metallic embossed print and double printed inner sleeves.

Released in 1997, Enslaved's 'Eld' marks a crucial point in the band's evolution, cementing their position as one of the most innovative forces in Norwegian black metal. Building on the foundations laid by their earlier work, 'Eld' is a defining blend of atmospheric, progressive black metal, rich with complex arrangements, epic melodies, and experimental elements that set it apart from the genre's norms. With 'Eld', Enslaved further expanded their sonic landscape, blending traditional black metal ferocity with elements of Viking heritage, progressive rock, and psychedelic atmospheres. The album features intricate song structures, sweeping compositions, and soaring clean vocals that give it a timeless, yet cutting-edge sound. Tracks like Allfaðr Oðinn and Vetrarnótt showcase the band's ability to merge dark, atmospheric riffs with epic, melodic progression, making the album feel both heavy and ethereal.
