Wow, here's a very interesting album from Hildolf's project Draugar and this one is hard to describe because it's just so damn out there. The raw production, vocals a bit reminiscent of Wrest at times but seriously 10 times more psychotic, meandering creepy keyboards, and insane guitar riffs blistering with distortion all combine for one hell of a disturbing and chaotic experience. Not for the casual listener, but holy hell I love this one.
