REVIEWS

The second album called “Har” was released on 14 May 2021 at Prophecy Productions and we received many great reviews:

Dordeduh seem to shape-shift in real time, exhibiting refined melodic sensibilities and sounding irrefutably like one of the most creative and original metal bands on the planet. Which, on this evidence, is exactly what they are.

Despite the range of influences, they never stand in contrast to each other, on the contrary: HAR is an extremely harmonious album that never seems like a series of songs, but is composed in such a way that it is also suitable for a one-to-one conversion on the stage would be suitable - which, by the way, please feel free to give.

Dordeduh’s music defies genres, incorporating them all seamlessly. The inclusion of Romanian instruments, and singing the album in Romanian, only serve to heighten the experience. I’ve been peddling my wares at Angry Metal Guy for almost five years, and this is only the third 4.5 I have handed out; take it seriously.

Har is just a stunning work of art. It starts out already great, and gets even better with every subsequent listen. Due to its lighter nature and smooth production, it’s accessible for black metal and non black metal listeners alike. It’s a wonderful cinematic, atmospheric journey, and honestly would also be a very solid black metal introduction for those put off by the genre’s more abrasive aspects.

The album reaffirms just how incredibly talented Sol Faur and Hupogrammos are at welding together extreme-leaning metal, local folk music and other influences into a cohesive and compelling sound, and they use that talent to produce something really charming and captivating here.

HAR is another collection of songs unlike anything I have heard... Dordeduh have, once again, pushed boundaries to create something extremely unique. This also shows that this band is the real deal.
