Varkensstad
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 5 ก.ค. 2023
Varkensstad is a solo music project that is primarily heavy metal but there are no creative boundaries. A project that is both a creative release and a tip of the hat the music and bands I grew up listening to and being influenced by. Releases will be both instrumental and with vocals. While the overall picture may seem to lack focus there is, in theory, something for everybody to enjoy. Thank you for those who have been on the ride since this has started, and for newcomers, welcome aboard.
VARKENSSTAD: All Roads Lead to Death FULL ALBUM
Kind of a companion piece to Ashes of the Fall but more punk, d-beat, and doom with a sprinkling of traditional heavy metal. There's some rough spots but at least it's not AI. Mostly drawing from how life can suck and you might work crappy jobs to sustain the passions you have.

Beyond metal one of my loves is film scores, and there's been a lack of memorable scores for awhile but Alan Silvestri knocked it out of the park with the theme for The Avengers. #theavengers #avengerstheme #alansilvestri

Varkensstad: HELLEVUUR 2022 Demos
มุมมอง 69หลายเดือนก่อน
The first 3 tracks I demoed for Hellevuur. Wasn't really an overall plan and I was just writing songs to demo a Schecter E-1 SLS for a review video at the time. Ironically, I re-recorded these songs with an LTD M-1000 for the final release. But these were the genesis for Hellevuur.

Varkensstad: THE HOLLOW 2016 Demos
มุมมอง 1162 หลายเดือนก่อน
5 tracks that were demoed in 2016, these songs were written in 2008 and 2009 but I never properly demoed them until much later. If you've listened to The Hollow you'll find some differences in these demos compared to the final songs. Especially "The Return" and "The Dragon". The mixes aren't great and there is some rough playing, but they're demos, so there's that. Tracklist timestamps 0:00 The...

VARKENSSTAD: Miasma Full Album

This might be a situation where my reach exceeds my grasp. Usually when I write I have a clear goal and theme in mind and with this, I had nothing but songs. Stylistically there's a through line, but it wasn't as planned out as most of my stuff is. There's some cool stuff but it's not explicitly black metal or death metal or even thrash metal like my stuff tends to usually lean into. So here go...
Varkensstad: ASHES OF THE FALL Full Album
มุมมอง 2162 หลายเดือนก่อน
A step back that draws from the stuff from the 80s and early 90s that I loved. The title draws inspiration from Satan's fall to earth after being cast out.

Great Opeth worship, if you're open to constructive crit I think the drum writing could be a bit more creative, it's definitely basic compared to the guitars and I think is the main thing holding this back
@@brgl61 that’s completely fair and I can admit that drums aren’t one of my strengths. Definitely something to work on and tweak for a full release with vocals. Thank you🤘
Opening sounds like Opeth
@@bardoface if we’re being honest, the whole thing kind of sounds like Opeth. Well, maybe The Ocean parts 1 & 2 have more of a Katatonia vibe.
@ yes. I hadn’t sampled enough yet. I agree. You seem to be prodigious in your output! Good work!!!
@@bardoface thank you🤘 to be fair, quite a bit of the stuff I put out is just revamped songs I’ve had for up to 20 years from bands I was in as a teenager. The last 4 or 5 are completely from scratch. More or less.
Sounds promising I'll post my opinion after 3 days i gotta eat this for a while ..
@@zorlackrom whatever conclusion you come to, glad you’re giving it a chance. Thank you🤘
@Varkensstad nice melody not too chaotic not technical and with some cheesy riffs.... Usually when I play these types of music my Catholic grandma would react as if foul spirits entered our area but not today...muhahaha!
Excelente, saludos desde México
Thank you🤘
PERFECT SOUND .... YES ..💯💯💯💯💯💥💫
Maravilhoso!!!
Thank you🤘
Wonderful Music. Do you play all the instruments or just the guitar?
@@billstarrjr.3249 thank you🤘 to answer your question. I am primarily a guitarist so I will do the guitars and bass. I have a basic drum skill but I’m not that good at playing them but I can chart out drum parts, same with keyboards. I will make charts and then use various Toontrack or IKMultimedia vst plugins for the drums, keys and synths. Depending on the sound I’m going for I may use a synth bass alone or in tandem with a real bass. It varies and depends on what I’m going for but that’s the gist of it.
Just finished listening to this masterpiece, simply amazing. 🤘🤘🤘

@@rebermichael5767 thank you🤘 when the albums are completed with vocals the instrumental versions will still be available. I see no reason why both versions can’t coexist.
This and all of their music is so great but in my opinion it shoul'd have vocals whitch would be hard to find👌
@@b3rt1000 there’s some stuff in the works to get vocals on these songs. I don’t have a time frame but stuff is happening.
Incredible!

Very nice! I grew up in area where the witches of the mist originated (Witte Wieven) and as a small kid I used to believe that they lurked in the woodlands and moors surrounding our house, terrible parents.... In Dutch folklore Witches of the Mist aren't all that bad, if you treat them well that is. But if you don't, you're doomed...
