Very interesting and high-quality Viking metal, fast songs are replaced by lyrical ballads, praising Odin and the exploits of fearless northern warriors. Melodic death metal is richly flavored with an ethnic touch of Scandinavian motifs, a special taste is given to the violin, the compositions sound great. The vocals also do not cause any complaints. sometimes with hoarseness, sometimes ordinary singing, the native language sounds very melodic and in the theme, sometimes you can hear female vocals in the songs. The band has nine studio works, and I personally especially like the releases from 2013. but it is definitely worth listening to all their works, so that a pleasant impression of the creative path of the guys is formed. The debut took place in 1998. According to the geo-location, the group is based in Norrtelje, Len region of Stockholm, Sweden. At the moment, the band has three members, two old-timers, Eric Gravsio, vocalist, drummer, since 2010, mastered the bass and plays it with might and main, Markus Ande guitarist, in the band since 1998, since 2011, the drum kit sits Jacob Nollegrin.

In terms of music, the band is closer to the works of ENSIFERUM, FOREFATHER, EQUILIBRIUM, but this is my subjective opinion, this is how it seemed to me when listening, but I think you will have other associations and this is good.
