VREDENSDAL (2018-2023), founded by The Goblin Reaper in Green Bay, Wisconsin - with the intention to alter the typical expectations of what black metal can be, integrating multiple influences into a single dynamic force to call out the primal desire within all to look deeper into our own inner shadow. Dubbed NWOUSBM by fans, the music features styles both, the familiar and the unknown, which weave a tapestry of homages to the masters of yesteryear and explore new takes on the genre, most often in a thrashing & grooving madness. Fans of both the classic and contemporary black metal sound will find this outstanding act warrants repeated listening.
After spending 5 years rising through the ranks of the black metal underground, head of New Wave Of USBM two-piece VREDENSDAL, gaining fans across an international level and eventually ending it's reign at its peak with 4th album "Sonic Devotion To Darkness" via the respected Soulseller Records (Gorgoroth, Sarké, Tulus) and being featured in Decibel Magazine, Mikael Vredensdal will make a powerful return with his brand new ambitious death metal hybrid solo project: CRANIAL VORTEX (Coming Soon)
