Excerpt:
"...

The members of Gwynbleidd are proficient musicians, but they seek not to impress with virtuosity, nor will their death metal bowl anyone over with its brutality. Gwynbleidd, instead, impress the listener with sheer musicality. Gwynbleidd compose their songs in such a way that they flow smoothly from section to section. Even ostensibly abrupt changes from soft acoustic parts to the heavy, metallic passages never come across as anything but logical. The album flows so well that it feels more like one great composition, rather than a collection of separate songs. While the songs on Nostalgia lack anything resembling a pop-like hook, at every turn there is something to tickle the listener’s ear, be it a catchy melody, a tasteful solo or a memorable riff.

Melody is one of the band’s strong suits: At least one guitar is constantly weaving sinuous threads of melody into the song’s fabric, transitioning seamlessly from phrase to phrase. The guitar parts, in fact, rarely converge, save in the bands heaviest moments. This almost constant presence of separate, but complimentary parts gives the music a grand, orchestral feel.
