KVLT Drums is a drum library crafted specifically for lo-fi metal and punk music, capturing the raw and unpolished spirit of 1990s Scandinavian Black Metal. The recordings took place in a small wooden sauna in South East Finland, which imparts a distinct, intimate atmosphere to the drum sounds. This library is intentionally dry and untreated, offering a gritty and authentic feel rather than a polished, mix-ready output. The unique recording environment contributes a characterful resonance that embodies the intense cabin fever often associated with underground metal scenes.

Featuring drums played on Tama Starclassic Performer kits and Zildjian cymbals, KVLT Drums includes a wide array of articulations and velocity layers to enhance realism. The collection consists of a kick, multiple snares including piccolo and wooden options, toms, hi-hat, ride, crashes, china, splashes, and two distinctive effect cymbals produced from unconventional items like a stove lid and an aluminum pan. These elements combine to provide a comprehensive and expressive toolkit for musicians aiming to emulate the raw, aggressive drum tones popularized in early Black Metal records.

Engineered and mixed by Ron D. Rock with performances by Peter Zana, the 310MB library preserves the authenticity and energy of the original sessions. KVLT Drums is suited for producers and artists seeking to add a gritty edge to their music, delivering a sound that feels both vintage and uniquely atmospheric. The attention to detail in velocity layering ensures dynamic playability, making it a valuable resource for those pursuing the signature Scandinavian Black Metal drum sound.
