This demo-CD has three songs on it of which two are sung in Norwegian and the other one in English. Yes, they're from Norway! Vaakevandring brings melodic black metal. In this case it means the keyboards play a dominant role. Each song has an intermezzo where the keyboards take over, almost making it symphonic metal. Sometimes it could have been better by building up to a climax and incorporating other instruments that contribute to the atmosphere they try to create. Sometimes changes come too abruptly. Listen how sudden some songs end to get an idea. That could have been better. But these remarks of mine are just small things about the compositions. The music itself is well-played. Their singer is doing a great job resulting into a good black metal product. At moments this CD is even excellent. And though it's only three songs, the total running time is more than 17 minutes. Available through Nordic Mission
