This afternoon in the Metal Digest office, we’re turning up the volume on the 2015 album ‘Dracula: Swing of Death’ by Jørn Lande & Trond Holter. As with everything he turns his voice to, Lande brought Holter’s ‘Dracula’ to life with a rich voice providing all the nuance for the most famous vampire on the planet. This initial outing was excellent, it blindsided many metal fans and created what many consider today to be a masterpiece, so much so that Trond Holter has struggled to maintain that high bar. So whatever lay beyond this release, it doesn’t matter, today, crank it up loud and dance the vampire’s waltz. |
