Swedish progressive metal band Svavelvinter releases new single, “Mörkrets Tid”, launches Kickstarter for exclusive vinyl

If the name Svavelvinter sounds vaguely familiar, that’s because it’s the collaboration between famed vocalist Christian Älvestam (who’s been in countless bands, but most notably Scar Symmetry and Solution .45), and Swedish author/lyricist Erik Granström. With positive reactions coming in from across the board for their album “Mörkrets Tid”, there’s also a Kickstarter being launched that includes exclusive numbered vinyl and t-shirts.

Älvestam also recorded all the instruments on the record (minus guitar solos, which are handled by Johan Randen and Ronnie Björnström) is in prime form on the new track. While containing plenty of black and melodic death metal influences, the title track is also reminiscent of mid-period Leprous, especially Tall Poppy Syndrome. It’s that juxtaposition of heavier elements with more melodic ones that makes Svavelvinter yet another project that bears watching.
