Awesome! Will listen after my meeting at work.

I have been meaning to check out Falkenbach for years. I know they have a cult following, just like Vintersorg.

Eld is fantastic. It is so sombre in parts, you can feel it deep within your guts. I love the intro to Blodhemn (the album), it sounds like a misty battlefield where humans are about to encounter an alien horde. Incredible.

For people who think we're crazy listening to extreme music, and, can't see the forest for the trees (get past the vocals ), there's guys on YouTube who are converting black/Viking metal into orchestral pieces using some nifty software, and, far out, it sounds amazing. Classical composers would be proud. The two genres have so much to do with each other.
