Rock på svenska
Ny recension
This is already the second album from this Swedish new Pagan folk-rock octet. They talk about the almost lost bond with the forests. Once the earth was covered with forest that was inter-connected together and with the earth, like the roots of the trees which communicate with each other, an energy which might be related with the symbol of the snake of Isgard. Humans broke this energy and keep on revolting against this sort of unity from which they were once part. Paganus is conscious of nature in a country where untouched nature still exists so that they can more easily feel this connection in their environment. Their sound however is not that of the forest nor that of a village or a city. They embrace the flairs of Swedish folk-roots thanks to some folk-rock tune flavours, and especially thanks to the parts by the violinist (who is also member of folk group Imma). With acoustic and electric guitars but also heavier bass there is also a connection with the deep shadow forest black of metal-folk. The combination of instruments with the light voice of the singer and the higher lights of the violin, together the light, attractive melodies in songs, the group convinces well enough even though we don’t understand a word. The seventh and eighth track are acoustic songs. The last track is a lighter danceable folk-rock song hopper.
