Good O'l Folk Metal March 31, 2007 26 out of 26 found this review helpful
This is a very good album. It's pretty straight forward Folk Metal. They do a good job with the whole epic battle theme. Violins, Accordions, Horns, makes for a very full listen. If you like Eluveitie, Korpiklaani, Finntroll, Elvenking, Folkearth, etc etc then You should grab this up right away! if this has helped make sure to push the little button that says yes :)
Awesome Cheesy Viking Battle Metal!!!! May 4, 2007 11 out of 13 found this review helpful
I just recently bought this record and i love it for the most part. Everything about this band is over the top, including the awesome band pictures inside the cd booklet that shows them covered in blood, fighting in an ancient battle.
These guys are the Rhaphody of the Viking Metal genre in the way that every song is way over the top with it's orchestration, lyrics, vocals, etc...It is super cheesy and super awesome at the same time. I absolutely love the first two full songs and i like the rest of the record, but there are a few weird songs that dont really click with me too well.
This is a really fun metal record. It is a great mix of blackened vocals, power metal guitars, galloping drums, and a huge mix of synths, horns, keys, accordians, and violins. The vocals are all over the place with growls, blackened screams, high power metal wails, spoken word, gang vocals, beerhall chants, and awesome battlefield vocals that sound like they are being shouted to the listener by someone actually in the midst of battle.
This band isnt too be taken lightly, but are also not to be taken too seriously. They are meant to be fun and cheesy, so grab a pint, put on your gauntlets, and grab you sword!
