Månegarm on Fornaldarsagor invite you to an adventure in times long past. The eight new tracks bring to life legends and tales from pre-Christian times that are still the cornerstones of Scandinavia today - and have now been set to music with gripping Viking Metal. The furious opener 'Sveablotet', for example, lets majestic Black Metal flow into hymnic choirs and melodies, while 'Ett sista farväl' pairs melancholic folk spirit with a delicate female voice. Warm violin sounds flash up again and again, give the frosty metal compositions epic character and fire up the head cinema of the listener. Fornaldarsagor turns out to be the Swedes' most complex and uncompromisingly enforced concept epic to date, which will let the pagan flames blaze for a long time to come... Ancient adventures through Scandinavian sagas!
Viking Metal for fans of Amon Amarth, Bathory, Moonsorrow!
