ŠAKAL's “II”: A Molten Surge of Slavic Fury

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARFbZwuHTok&t

Hold your wolves, people! ŠAKAL is back, and they ain't here to whisper lullabies. Their new release “II” just crashed onto the scene like a warhammer to the face: six tracks of untamed black metal fury soaked in Slavic myth, blood, and ancient fire.
 
Forget clean production and mainstream gloss: this is raw, gnarled, and proud. Picture thunder cracking over the dark woods of the Balkans, with riffs that gnaw your bones and vocals that snarl like beasts dragged from the underworld. It’s heavier than their debut, more primal, more relentless.
 
What makes it tick? Mid-tempo grooves you can’t shake, haunting melodies wrapped in frost, and lyrics all in Serbian, talking war, death, and the gods time forgot. That language choice? Makes it hit way harder. It ain’t just music, it’s a cultural scream.
 
Recorded at Uptown Studios, then sharpened at Piranha, it was released May 30, 2025 and you better believe you’ll feel it in your chest. The production’s cleaner, yeah, but the sound? Still raw as a ritual wound.
 
“II” doesn’t just growl—it devours. This ain’t trendy, it’s timeless. Like drinking mead under lightning skies, fist raised, fire roaring. If you call yourself a metalhead and miss this one... well, you’ve already lost.
 
Ready for the next wolf howl whenever you are!
