Norway and black metal—an iconic union forged in the early '90s. Enter HAGL, a band that masterfully embodies the cold, raw essence of the genre’s golden era while injecting it with a refined modern edge. With members hailing from respected acts like Beastcraft, Endezzma, and Vulture, HAGL’s pedigree is unmistakable, and their music delivers with an intensity that few can match.
Their album Lenket til Livet is a monumental tribute to Norwegian black metal’s timeless spirit. Recorded at Gravlung Studios and mixed by L.F.F., known for his work with Angst Skvadron and Wobbler, the production captures an impeccable balance between primal aggression and atmospheric depth. From ferocious riffing to haunting melodies, each track channels darkness and fury, free from post-metal influences or progressive flourishes.
HAGL proves that the cult of true Norwegian black metal remains alive and well. Lenket til Livet is an essential release for anyone devoted to the genre’s purest form—a raw, unrelenting masterpiece destined to endure.
