" VINTERLAND are a somewhat mysterious Swedish band that released this killer album in 1996 and disappeared a short time after that, which is really very sad. After all “Welcome My Last Chapter” offers first-class melodic, intense Black Metal which could be described as a mixture between DISSECTION, old NAGLFAR (“Vittra”)"

" I wouldn't even go as far as to call the tracks "songs" - they mix into a long stream of pure hate and sorrow. That is how I describe the album, pure hate and sorrow incarnated in music. The drums are extremely fast and hard, with double bass through most of the album. The melodies consist of constant harmonies from the guitars. The vocals are raw growls that make the spine shiver from the pure power they contain. On to the band. The band is swedish. There are only three members in Vinterland, Pehr Larsson (strings of vinter, acoustic guitars and backing vocals), Forn Bragman (strings of knight, acoustic guitars, bass and vocals) and Andreas Larsson ("black abyssic thunder" which I guess means drums). The album is released on No Fashion Records and "This work is eternally dedicated to the memory of Gustav Ekbäck" (quote from the booklet).

To finish this review, some words of advice: Go fucking buy this CD. Now.
