In the end I can highly recommend Heriotz Sustraiak to individuals longing for medieval black ambient at its finest — it is a wonderful journey that will last above and beyond your wildest expectations. Heriotz Sustraiak is more of an atmospheric work of art with brooding sweeping synthesizers accompanied, in the end, by the heavenly voice of Hildr, once again perfectly adding to the already heavy atmosphere. The song continues with a mixture of the old Elffor atmospheres and growls mixed to a damn fine hybrid of roughness and clarity. When it comes to the end, this album is among the best blend of dark fantastic atmospheres and ambient black metal there are. Heriotz Sustraiak translates into Bloody Roots in Euskara, the ancient language of the basque people, and it is a fitting name for a band that stands strong in its bloody past while still stretching its branches to the dark future. The songs are all sung in Euskara, which gives a unique feel to them, and although my understanding of the basque language is nil, the message is delivered one growling word at a time, forming a primal understanding between the song and its listener. Despite the length of the individual songs, they never feel dull or drawn out and manage to enthrall me throughout the entire album.

All the 4 songs on the album clock in at 10 minutes or above with a total running length of almost 48 minutes. The eerie chanting of the forlorn Valkyrie is one of the best things that has happened to Elffor during the time that I have spent listening to the band.
ELFFOR Heriotz Sustraiak reviews
Few musicians today have the ability to weave this much emotion into their music. The songs are all sung in Euskara, which gives a unique feel to them, and although my understanding of the basque language is nil, the message is delivered one growling word at a time, forming a primal understanding between the song and its listener. The Basque black ambient project Elffor returns once more with a new album, and following on the trail of Frostbitten Pain, it is an evolved creation that takes a hold of you right from the start.
Heriotz Sustraiak is more of an atmospheric work of art with brooding sweeping synthesizers accompanied, in the end, by the heavenly voice of Hildr, once again perfectly adding to the already heavy atmosphere.
