Folkstorm - Folkmusik

Where to begin? I think this is a different Folkstorm production compared to the others. I cannot really point out what it is but I think it's the more clean sound; it's a bit more less noise and violent than previous releases. In the meanwhile it also leans more on melodies than what's common in this type of music.

"God Hates America" is a really nice song and it's also probably the song that sticks out most on this record. Although, I think "Ty Han Är Min Soldat" is the best track followed by "Folkhat/Blodsmak" and "Hatewave" that walks a more ambient path.

And for those who bought the limited edition of this record there is also a mini CD containing more unpleasantness for the pop music dictators and know-it-all's but for us noise lovers it's additional minutes of wonderful listening. To make a long story short, this is excellent.
