Avathar Ojakkala, Finland
Avathar is the name of a dark, forgotten land in the south of Aman in between the mountains and the sea in J.R.R. Tolkien's
Middle-earth. Ungoliant used to dwell there before she and Melkor destroyed the Two Trees of Valinor.
The band was a two-piece (Witch King and Scatha) until summer 2005.

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!!
