NACHTFALKE - HAIL VICTORY TEUTONIA   

 
Graveland’s "Following the Voice of Blood" or Hades’ "The Dawn of the Dying Sun" are the fathers of epic pagan metal, a form of music that capture the essence of the Bathory’s "Hammerheart" bringing that spirit in a sombre and mysterious scenario. 
"Hail Victory Teutonia" is the song that came from the ancient past, a bloody saga of hatred heroism under the banner of the war-god, against the christian limits and servitude.As "1000 Swords" "Hail Victory Teutonia" is a crusade, a rebellion to the dissolution of those echoes, is like to travel in dark-woods, feeling distant and mysterious rumours of that bloody spirituality.  

Someone will recognize that Occulta Mors is one of the Moonblood members and it’s not a surprise that from a cult act like that something special should come out. What I can hear is a true involvement, a pulsing passion under the blade of fire and that’s all for me.  
Together with Graveland Nactfalke are the most notorious and respected bands and they fully deserve that, their monumental melodies are an essence of the far majestic atmosphere of an era now so distant from the modern sensibility. Leaving apart the almost false recording sound of the modern bands "Hail Victory..." have the right harsh and primitive recording, a visionary landscape of decayed bodies, and the twilight is coming...
