Info:
Vratyas Vakyas, originally from Iceland but is now residing in
Germany. Lyrically, the band is rooted in various Germanic and
Scandinavian folklore, making Falkenbach much more of a
pagan/Viking band than a traditional black metal band. The are
songs mid-paced epics, with Vakyas alternating between clean and
black singing, and with prominent keyboards providing the proper
folkloric atmosphere. Finally, in late 2003, a new album was
released, the first with session musicians (three members of a
Skaldic Art band named Vindsval (drums - Bolthorn, additional
acoustic guitars - Hagalaz and additional vocals - Tyrann).
The name:
hawk/falcon -
stream/brook; also, a place in Germany. |
