BLACK BIRCH "Black Birch" 12" EP
The Swedish atmospheric black metal duo BLACK BIRCH, consisting of Gina Wiklund (vocals, guitar & bass) and Ulf Blomberg (drums, guitar, bass & backup vocals), is making waves in the music industry. With influences from crust, post-metal, and black metal, they've created a sound that's both classic and contemporary, fusing atmospheric harmonies with heavy midsections and an intensely passionate vocal attack. Their innovative approach to creating music from their home studio in rural Sweden has already won them international recognition, with regular airplay on BBC1 and Australia's Triple J.
"Our music often circles around the topic of human nature and humans' place and effect on the earth. This EP, containing the songs Fallen - Death - Soil - Birth, is sort of an expression of the stream of life, a never-ending circle. As we fall and die so we can return to the soil, from where we were given, which can in return give birth to new life. A constant limbo between life and death. And by enabling new human life, also causing the destruction of the earth itself."
