Sheol (שְׁאוֹל) & Fōr 7” Split - Tehom /
Ginnungagap (2014)
Iron Bonehead Productions
Review by Trevor Proctor
If you haven’t heard of sepulchral death
metal band Sheol (שְׁאוֹל) it’s about high time you did as to say they’ve had a
hell of a year so far is an understatement. Since releasing their widely
praised debut EP “Sepulchral Ruins Below the Temple” at the beginning of the
year they’ve solidified their line-up with a new guitarist, played a number of
live shows (including two in support of Incantation) and also entered the studio
to record a track for this upcoming 7” split with Sweden’s Fōr. Details about
Sweden’s Fōr (Proto-Germanic for Fire) are somewhat more limited - formed in
2013 they’ve so far released a demo entitled Kundaz and also an EP, Blakaz Askō
Hertō, which was released in November 2013 via Iron Bonehead – identities of
band members and their locations are currently unknown. The eye-catching cover
artwork was designed by JDW Death my only Friend Artworks and late August sees
the release of this essential 7”.
