Frigoris is a German pagan black metal band formed back in 2007 by Dominik Winter. After the demo “Morgenröte” in 2008 and several line-up changes, the band self-released its debut full-length album “Nach dem Krieg…” in 2010. The line-up changes never stopped for the band, but they didn’t give up. In the end of 2012 they signed a one-record deal with the Canadian label Hypnotic Dirge Records and the South Korean ...

"Wind" is German Frigoris other fuldlængdes. I do not know their first disc, but this one is not quite so crazy. The genre has, by its own admission a mix between black metal and pagan metal, and this really is very good.

We start out with an atmospheric intro where rain, little birds singing, acoustic guitar, shown well have been voted one more time in some places, and whisper in German (all texts...

Frigoris have been around for six years, and have managed to be kept a secret from most..  I actually originally found them through the artist who designed the album art for my band (Maugrim) as he was also doing art for them.  The image he had done for "Wind" pulled me in immediately, so much so, I tried signing them to my label...but I couldn't offer them what they needed, and clearly they deserve to be catered more than I can do.  A ...

Germany is one of the bastions of Europe's most prolific metal bands and territory, from which they originate, can be counted on at least a thousand. And among those thousands of bands someday year of our Lord 2007 hatched another, whose members he gave the coat of arms name Frigoris and began to commit pagan black metal. Does this sound suspiciously familiar and already pre expect from the album "...

From the lands of Germany there comes the music of Frigoris , training pagan / black metal on her second album with Wind , album released in June for the Hypnotic Dirge Records .

A great product of extreme metal and air pollution, which plunges us with taste, making use of ideas very close to folk metal, in a musical landscape of pure aggression but also decadent melancholy. A journey through vast...

German group (not change) Black Metal inspired by "pagan" Frigoris released his first album in 2010 with a rather average. In fact, that made ​​way for Nach dem Krieg  ! On the 2010 album, the style is quite hesitant despite some good parts (particularly the acoustic guitar), with a little chopped musical construction and consistency is lacking. The melodic part is present, but not necessaril...

I have a soft spot for bands that sing in German, especially black metal and neofolk. So this disc mix of both styles, (but not exactly neofolk acoustic guitars have a role) painted quite palatable. 

"Wind" is the second album by the Germans Frigoris. In 2009, two demos, Winter, vocalist and guitar, made the other members, and apparently has given good results, while this album is the re...

It is these moments when you simply must force off an album. Not because you can not bear it. The contrary, it puts it all without expectations in the CD player and wants to hear it by the way, you actually have to do something else. And then directs the music but always of what we wanted to do down because they seduced over and again to listen more closely and are yielding to the back, then you can...

Frigoris from the home country to present with "Wind" their second full disc.

Until a few hours my Essen Frigoris chapel was still completely unknown. What we get offered with "wind", the second work of the chapel? A mixture of Black Metal and Pagan, sometimes quickly, sometimes played a little milder. All backed by ballad (guitars) sounds. Melody hits hard and crisp percussion and bass Gittaren p...

The second full-length of Frigoris really gave me a lot. A summary of the methodology German / Austrian to be creepy, the exemplification of all that it means melodic / melancholic within the extreme. It 's very hard for me to tell you about this work just for her to be enslaved in a complete manner to that thing called "feeling". A roller melodic and endured that it sweeps away thanks to a black meta...

The second album of melodic black metal band Frigoris goes by the name "wind" and with the cover you have already proven right taste. It looks sublime, Environmentalist and powerful. Musically, there are epic black metal, acoustic guitars and folk influences from the area. Combined with the German Geshoute Frigoris here have really made ​​a great album, one that will not soon likely to be...

It's strange when a German metal band with German lyrics on the cooperation of two labels, one from Korea, one from Canada, is dependent. Especially when this is quite capable in the A category of the German - I call it hate - Pagan Black Metal advance. For what Frigoris deliver food from the "wind" could well be on a par with the likes of Empire decadence or Hel. The portentous title gives...

I needed something to smile as I entered the band name into the form of a, ahem, very well-known search engine. In the ranking ranked in the top row, the "Frigoris AG Refrigeration" one. How to match the melodic black metal I thought. However, I can "wind" (release date 07.06.2013) is anything but cold. Frigoris focus on guitar-driven, melodic melancholy music ála a Insomnium mixture with which they h...

The first of three releases this summer by Hypnotic Dirge Records (I'll be covering the other two soon) is Frigoris' album, Wind. This is an epic and atmospheric work of art from these bleak Germans. Haunting melodies blend with harsh rhythms to create a quite wonderful album. Black  metal continues to evolve, which might piss of some, and Frigoris do a great job of retaining an old school feel with modern elements. Quite hone...
