Woods Of Infinity have always been something slightly
different in black metal. Their use of sound samples
catchy folk-ish riffs, and bizarre interludes sets them
apart from the typical Burzum, Mayhem or Darkthrone
clone. They truly stand apart from the rest
"Hejda", their sophomore album is no exception. This is a
weird album, however it is that quality that makes it
such an enjoyable listen. The songs here are typically
mid-paced, however every song is full of tempo changes
and interludes to keep the listener's attention. The
guitar for the most part is good. Most of the riffs are
catchy and remind us of Nokturnal Mortum, and
occasionally old Moonblood. This doesn't really fit into
the headbanging or hypnotic category, it has its own feel
and atmosphere to it. Lyrically, Woods Of Infinity tends
to write about deviant subjects such as pedophilia and
rape, but the lyrics are in Swedish. Atmospherically
however, it has a feeling of dementia and psychosis
bordering on schizophrenia at times. The vocals range
from typical black metal shrieks, to whispers and chants
to frantic psychotic screams
There aren't really any bad songs here, they all stand
out in their own right. Worthy of special notice are
"Under Farden" and "En Forgangen Tid". "Under Farden" is
one of those dark, brooding tracks that would feel right
at home on Filosofem. This song is probably the best
example of Woods Of Infinity's unique style on this
album. "En Forgangen Tid" is the long epic track here. It
is an amazingly crafted song with a truly triumphant feel
to it. Also worthy of mention is the strange black metal
cover of Barry Manilow's "Old Songs". This type of
non-metal black metal cover worked well for Mutiilation's
version of "My Way" by Frank Sinatra, but it is a
different case here. It is in no way a bad track, but it
almost disrupts the flow of the album. It would have
probably fit better at the end as a bonus track
Overall this album is recommend to any black metal fans
especially those looking for something different. If you
are a fan of Woods Of Infinity's other releases, this is
more of the same, and if you've never heard them, this is
a good place to start

Ripper's Notes: The CD has been limited to 2000 copies only by Total
Holocaust Records. "Rationen Krymprygg" is an unlisted
intro. "Hejda" is a Swedish term for "Good bye"
