Monuments Review: Rhys’ Reviewz

Sheffield Medieval Folk Metallers Northern Oak have released their sophomore album with a highly sophisticated collection of musical compositions, namely the harsh vocals leading to an assumption there is either Black Metal influences or Doom Metal influences, none the less, the intricate combination that this all English group exerts is of the same level as Germany’s Subway To Sally although on an alternate perspective, the two Medieval metal bands have different views on ‘Medieval music’, hark a different sound entirely. But one album to be at peace with, melodies, atmosphere, entrancing tunes, just a few ingredients this sextet as included, leaving this album to be one of the ‘Monuments’ in the Midlands.
