Svekkelse is the sixth full-length album from the Trondheim based black metal band Gjendød. The second album as a three-piece. Svekkelse continues where the previous album Livskramper quit, but this time, the band has turned it all up a notch. The band never worked with their compositions with such an intensity before.
The eight songs presented goes from epic to deranged, from technical to primitive, and from sheer passiveness to outraged despair. The lyrics are inspired by dark local lore and legends, both self experienced and learned. This might be the strongest album by Gjendød to now, again draped by the crushing sounds of the infamous NordStern studios.
