"Froide Et Sombre" demo is the latest offering from Svartblod by the name of Krayl,released in September 2013 by Salute Records.Krayl eventually have left the ambient elements in the music and continue to compose more on the raw black metal side.All the way from India,Krayl is a one man band struggling to survive the black metal scene with high hopes and it ended well when Krayl managed to cut a deal with Depressive Illusions Records.

The demo contains 4 straightforward black metal tunes with a total playtime of 15:43 which is quite short and yes some journey is meant to be short and not a memorable one just like this demo.It has its speciality eventhough the monotonous composition and arrangement is a little bit strange due to the atmosphere that Krayl managed to enhance within the tunes.The dialogs and conversation inside the music really helped Krayl to deliver its message to the listeners in a unique way.Svartblod's vocals is quite dry and needs more bass to make sure the impact of his vocals is strong enough to blend in with the raw elements.
​
As a one man band,Krayl still have a long way to go and there's plenty of time to experiment with more element in near future.It's a unique band on one side and on the other side not easily memorable just by listening to the music,in other words Krayl must work harder and I believe Svartblod can accomplish something along the dark journey of Krayl and may the force be with him!
