Album Notes & Community Reviews

Featuring drumming contributions from Nile's George Kollias, the Faroese metal act delivered a highly polished, concept-driven seventh album centering around a fallen Viking warrior's journey to Valhalla. The record heavily relies on massive, harmonized power-metal guitar solos and incredibly triumphant, distinctly Scandinavian folk-inspired vocal hooks.
