The Hyperborean

"Actually, Fer De Lance manage to stand out convincingly from others in their field, seeing as quite few epic metal bands have included similar reflective sections in their songs, and the folky lilt on one side and the battle-weary march on the other spark off powerful associations very suitable for the style. That's not to mention the darker textures interwoven from black metal and doom, the latter of which comes to the fore in the gloomy "Sirens" particularly. It goes without saying that fans of bombast will be much better suited to venture into Fer De Lance's icy territories than those who prefer meekness, and it's as such a fan that I find myself itching to press repeat on The Hyperborean once again".

"There are a lot of good things going on with Fer De Lance's full-length debut, with a few flaws holding it back from greatness. The potential can be heard on the better cuts and that potential is huge. With more consistent song-crafting and a bit more self-editing, this will be an act to fear and dread. They have my full attention and I eagerly await the next inwasion".
