Change the thread title to "Doom Metal With Viking Lyrics" or something.
of course not! but it is not the melodic i likeSgt. Kuntz wrote:melodic is not automatically bad
Start a topic about some hard rock album on the mighty Mausoleum recorords instead, then everybody on this forum will understand the context just perfectly.FuneralCircle wrote:Damn man, it really would have helped if you guys read my OP as well as the title of the thread to understand the context, it's going all over the place!!!
Viking lyrics have absolutely nothing to do with it. One of the style defining album is Bathory's "Twilight of the Gods" and it pretty much doesn't have a single lyric line about vikings. The first post also mentions Solstice as a reference, who never wrote squat about vikings. He's not after "doom metal with viking lyrics", he's after doom metal similar in style to "viking era" Bathory.Avengerf wrote:It would have probably helped if you were more clear to begin with though.

I was being sarcastic as "Viking Metal" isn't an actual sub-genre and therefore not really defined in terms of what he's apparently looking for. I guess he could change the title to "Viking Era Bathory Clones" instead then.mordred wrote:Viking lyrics have absolutely nothing to do with it.

The Eerie is my favorite! There are countless reissues on tape & CD thoughShadow Kingdom wrote:GOD'S TOWER
It was mentioned earlier, but I think that's what you're missing in your collection.
Their CDs are hard to find. Would love to re-issue their early stuff.
Was this really too confusing for everyone else to understand initially speaking?Viking lyrics have absolutely nothing to do with it.

Actually this is probably totally true. Most bands in the "Bathory-copycat" genre might make for some interesting listening now and then and there are some gems here and there (Scald and Gods Tower are two that come to mind) but Primordial are totally in the league of their own. Amazing songwriting and monumetal sound. I also tend to like Mael Mordha with their take on the celtic/doom sound but they are much more bare-bones.DaN wrote:It almost feels demeaning to namedrop them in this context but of course PRIMORDIAL should be mentioned. No other band I know have succeeded so well in taking the "Hammerheart"-influence and turned it into something unique. Frankly I can't imagine there being a better band of this sort out there.

Although I really do like PRIMORDIAL a whole lot, I still think SCALD are the champions of this kind of Metal... The Will of the Gods is Great Power is just the most killer album I've heard in so damn long.Zdan wrote:Actually this is probably totally true.
