From an explosive new album, an intoxicating and fierce fusion of electronic pulsating rhythms and heavy metal layers of synth and guitar – German creative act Nordstahl reaches peak musical appeal, with the boldly intense and unignorably catchy anthem Ragnarök in Berlin.
Storming into view with a fine production that lets the distortion and tempo of this metal-dance backdrop instantly immerse its audience, Ragnarök in Berlin goes on to follow a diverse vocal line, through the roar and melody of metal and rock, culminating in a snappy and tuneful crescendo of a hook – which naturally delivers an all-together-now, floor-filler moment, no doubt perfectly suited to the live scenes.
Impressively original, outstanding by design and with contrast mastered throughout, Ragnarök in Berlin is an unforgettable new track, and a piercing commentary on the modern apocalypse. Nordstahl are making huge strides with their music this year.
